You might want to read up on that, Piwoslaw ...
Same engines, same troubles.

Thanks, I'll have a look. My mechanic gravity drains, I doubt he has one of those oil vacuum thingies.
This reminds me of something funny - Once I was looking through the specs of different Peugeot models with the same 1.6 HDi engine and I noticed that each manual gave a different amount of oil that engine could hold. I don't remember the actual numbers for each model, but they spanned from 4.2 to 4.8 liters. That's quite a difference for the same lump, so maybe there are some differences between the 1.6HDi in a 2005 P307 and the 1.6HDi in a 2008 P207, for example?

Maybe it's time to start avoiding the motorway ?

Is the slow route longer? Ever since I started looking at fuel used, instead of just l/100km, the only times I take my old (faster) route is when biking

BTW: My SGII shows 99 as max LOD, not 98.
