Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Loosing Oil

[rmrc]

Just turned 100,000 a few weeks ago. Untill now, I've never noticed any loss of engine oil when checking using the dip stick. I've used AMSOIL from the beginning.



She's ready for her next oil change and now, I've noticed that my dip stick reading is down to the bottom end of the safe area. I have no evidence of any oil leaks and I show no signs of burning oil.



Any suggestions???????????????

Oil Loss

I would suggest to check your radiator and overflo tank for any signs oil, maybe you have a head gasket starting to go south. Just my thoughts.

I checked the over flow and radiator for signs of oil as suggested but thankfully,,,,, there was no sign of oil.



Antifreeze very clean and clear!!!!



Any other thoughts????

The seals in the turbo can go bad but you will see smoke from the exhaust. Unless its leaking to the outside thats my only thought.
