Black oil on dipstick
another chapter to my PT's saga
Last oil change was 2,200 miles ago.
I checked my dipstick, which I have done before, and this time the oil was below the MIN mark and the oil was pretty much black and smelled burned.
I have 2.4 turbo auto.
I was driving 70 miles per day for the last 2 years but within the last month went back to 8 miles per day.
I asked a guy at Kragen if that would attribute to oil being used faster, but he said it sounds like the oil that was used on the last change was 'cheap' oil.
I'm concerned because I've never seen it black nor has it smelled.
Any ideas?
I added half a quart and am going to get it changed tomorrow...
