Hi, I have a problem. I checked the oil level yesterday and it was at a minimum. I added the oil I measured a little arrived on the dipstick. Today, the car is on a level road, the engine is cold, the level is a bit more. I poured oil again. I check the level in an hour and he is in the same place. Strange.. There are no leaks under the car, no exhaust fumes ... What is going on?

Hi Advice please - I have an VW Lupo 1.4 Automatic 1999 with 83k miles on the clock. It has an oil leak. I have been nursing it for the past year or so (topping up oil). The garage has said it could be the sump gasket and/or crank shaft gasket plus the engine breather/oil separator looks quite wet. The quotation to have all of the above fixed (including cambelt and waterpump change) is £894, which sadly is more than the car is worth I am going to get rid of the car as it is not economically viable for me to have all the work done, however does anyone have any advice on how I might be able 'recycle' it in anyway? For instance does anyone need any parts or shall I just scrap it? We Buy Any Car.com have offered £110 on line (based on mileage being 150k). I may see if a local college would like it for apprentices to work on or something? ... Thoughts and advice please Thank you. K
