    Hi
    I've just bought a K reg 205. Very well kept car and goes great. Having
    just chaecked the oil and found it to be a bit low, I thought I would top
    it up. The question ie, does anyone know where the oil goes? Sounds a bit
    of a daft question, but I've looked all over the engine for any cap marked
    "oil" but can't find a thing.
    Hope you can help sort it.
    Thanks.
    Al.

    On our 205 the cap is right on top of the engine.

    Depends what engine it is. I think this is correct (it was for my 205s and
    all the others i've seen): if its <1.4 then it'll be the black cap on top of
    the engine. If its >1.6 (ie GTi or diesel) then it'll be where the dipsitck
    goes in (there'll be 2 clips that hold the cap on).

    Thanks Dirk, but I still can't see one on mine. By the way, it's an
    automatic...maybe its in another place.
    Thanks for looking though.
    Cheers
