Looking for advise. When my sons Polo is not running the oil level on the dip stick looks ok, but when the car is running there is no oil level showing on the dip stick. Is this normal or do I need to top up the oil?
Many thanks.

You never measure the oil when the engine is running. If its up to the level when its turned off and on a level surface, there is nothing to worry about.
