2005 2.0Hdi Rising dip-stick - Dereksn51
Strange one this but I'm sure someone will have experienced this problem.Car's a 55 reg Berlingo 2.0Hdi with 25k on clock .Have checked the oil level and found the dip-stick about an inch out of it's holder.Oil level fine,not over-filled or anything.A week later the same thing-about an inch out of the holder.Anybody any ideas whats going on?Car's running fine.Never had any problems with it.

Blocked breather pipe causing pressurisation at speed. Remove brether pipe and oil seperator, if it has one, and clean in white spirit. Replace and see how it goes. Does this vehicle do a lot of short runs. Regards Peter
