Hey all,
I have this code and can't find anything online. I did top up my oil on the 4th April as it was low. I felt I may have overfilled it at the time. Is this what the code is pointing too?
Thank you

appleton :First, check the oil level using the engine dipstick. some overfilling can be tolerated - but if it's substantially overfilled, drain-out the excess oil
BUT - If you look at your screenshot - notice that the Malfunction frequency counter =1. This means that since the error was first registered in the Engine module's fault memory (which was 4th April - as you say), the same error has NOT re-appeared in a subsequent ignition cycle.
Now, it's almost 2 x weeks since this date and I assume that this car is regularly used (so, lots of ignition cycles since 4th April) and I also assume that your screenshot was recently recorded. If my assumptions above are correct, my guess is that this is a once-off error - probably the result of your oil change exercise (but I have no idea why!) If this was my car, I would clear the error and see if it returns. In the interim and until it does does re-appear, I would simply enjoy the car!!

Hey dv52,
Thanks so much for your explanation. I've rescanned and I've not had a return of that code. The oil isn't substantially overfilled. The car is booked in for a full service next month anyway.
THank you so much!
