oil level on the dipstic rissing

the oil level on my dipstic is rissing on my 406 diesel.and the oil
seams to be thin any ideas as to why

 

oil dos come up the dip stick.check the level when engine is turn OFF.
was the engine warm?when you looked at the dip stick?and what type of
oil are you using?

 

yeah the engine was switched off. i checked the oil level before I set
off (engine cold) this morning then checked it when I returned after
about a 150ml trip (engine warm) and the oil level was quit a bit
higher.using basic semi sym oil

 

recheck it in the morning. as oil dos go up the pipe.and that would give
you a reading.untill it was all gone from the tube.

 

And when you recheck when cold has it dropped to the original level or
stayed high? Does it smell of diesel? Is there any signs of water in
it? Has your coolant level dropped?

 

to the original level NO IT'S STILL HIGH
Does it smell of diesel? NOT SURE AS UNFORTUNALY THE CAR IS A DIESEL
SO EVERYTHING SMELLS OF THE STUFF
Is there any signs of water in it? NO
Has your coolant level dropped? NO

 

Does it smell of diesel? NOT SURE AS UNFORTUNALY THE CAR IS A DIESEL
Try wiping the oil on the dipstick onto a clean tissue and then walk well
away from the car to sniff it. That should eliminate smells from the car
and just leave that in the oil and on your hands.
