What are the symptoms of bad engine oil?
Fundamentally, unless it has gone too far, the average motorist is unlikely to know there is something wrong physically with it.
There may be an oil pressure warning on the dashboard that could indicate the oil isn’t circulating as well as it should due to a blocking filter or even a failing oil pump or there may be an oil level warning, which would indicate there isn’t enough oil in the engine. However both of these warnings are not really an indicator of the actual oil quality but can alert you to potential issues.
Therefore typical symptoms are;
- Engine oil level warning
- Engine oil pressure warning
- Service indicator lights
- Oil quality warning light

Great service from Kyriacos. Although he was running late, he called well in advance to let me know and still accommodated the booking even though it ended up being well into the evening, which I really appreciated.
He was very knowledgeable, diagnosed the faults and took the time to explain everything clearly and offer practical advice. What I particularly appreciated was that he didn't rush into quoting or charging me for additional work unnecessarily. Instead, he advised me on what to do next and to reassess if the faults persist, which is something you don't come across very often.
All in all, a great experience. Professional, knowledgeable and genuine. I would definitely recommend Kyriacos and would happily use him again.”
