Any ideas? Not changed oil myself since I’ve had it . Oil seems clean not frothy ect. I had this on my 3.0 Viano which is very sensitive to even the slightest overfill, had to suck a bit out to stop the light..... Not sure if the 1.8d is actually a Merc engine ?

Casper 272 Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) Unless it's had a recent service I'd do an oil and filter change with the correct oil grades etc stick a flush through it and then check the levels are correct might be worth a go and can't do any harm keep us posted Edited December 18, 2019 by Casper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheaper than throwing oil level sensors etc at it when it could just be simple. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
