Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone know how low is low when you drop one bar on the gauge? Sometimes it's down one when I start it cold, others not, yet when it's low (down one) and drive it and park say 3-4 hours, it's back up to the top. Lately it's been down one to none, or temporarily down to then back to one? Any thoughts and if it's down by one bar or two, how much do you add? Had Mobil 1 synthetic oil change around 2,000 miles ago. Any help appreciated. Gerardo

POST 2Original post

2 bars is about 1/2 a quart

POST 3Original post

There was a great article in Excellence about the little gauge and how it works. That is all there is in the 997. No dip stick.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks. I'll check the article out and also look at the dip stick. I appreciate that!
