2016 tdci keeps pushing out the dip stick and hence oil?

Postby twincam » Sun Apr 18, 2021 11:09 am

The dipstick on 2016 connect 1.5 which has covered 51,000 miles has started to push out the dipstick and oil. The engine runs fine no obvious loss of power so presume that it is not a piston ring problem causing back pressure? it would seem more obvious that it would be a breather problem but I cannot find any reference to that problem.
It was sent to the garage that maintains it but was told that the dipstick was not put back properly, no proper mechanics anymore.
