Oil level indicator lamp lights up: Oil loss

If the engine oil level indicator lamp lights up on the vehicles mentioned above, or if an insufficient oil level or oil loss is detected, the oil lines on the turbocharger may be the cause. Particular attention should be paid to the sealing rings of the lines for the oil supply and oil return. If they can be identified as the cause of the leak, they should be replaced. During assembly, make sure that the new sealing rings are inserted precisely and are not damaged in the process.
