hi,
its a 51 plate clio 1.4 privilege. When ideling it seems to 'judder' and has very low revs. The gear stick also seems to vibrate abnormally. The car seems slower than normal ( if possible )lol, and now the engine shaped light is on full time. Its been fine an developed this after not being used for three days. I checked the oil and its just over half.
Any ideas please. Cars done approx 35k

might be an idea to top up the oil if there is 0.5L missing?

do you normally look at the dipstick and think half is ok? lol :D

i think the max-min mark is equivalent to 1L, but still, nice to keep it topped up!!!
as one day you may forget to check it, and may end up far too low then causing some damage.
