Prophylactic check on my “DARK” engine oil
A while back I had the first “free” service of my unit at local VW dealership
Came home and looked at the oil level, and noticed the color was dark-ish, but full.
I was out today, and dropped in on Jiffy Lube.
Sun was bright, and I ask the attendant to dip my oil.
It was 100% full, and was the same dark-ish color.
He told me his (15 year) *experience* with diesel oil was this.
The oil goes in clear-ish then darkens rather quickly.
OK, TDi people ~~ what is the straight skinny?
