New 2.0 TDI ST FR Leon . I noticed a smell of fumes from the engine in the cabin after my first long journey .
the garage I bought it from wanted to look at it . They asked to check the oil . It was at the minimum level after 300 miles ( 5,000 Kms)
They could not get any smell of the fumes when they took it on a short 10 mile trip and topped up the oil .
Roll on 250 Kms later and the oil level is now again closer to half way than at maximum level . I am going to run it for another 500 kms and test again .
Seat say that it is normal to burn a 1/2 litre every 1000 kms ( 600 miles) . That is crazy . For every full of diesel I will be putting in 10- 20 euro of oil . What should I do if the garage say this is normal .
I had an ateca 1.6 desiel and it never took a drop of oil between services .
