just noticed my oils dropped a few notches. whats a decent oil for the 1.0 12v engine?

and could my oil being low cause the engine management to slow me down? happens if i turn a corner quickly then go up hill... but then the light goes back out

If your loosing oil, then it's a problem.

Putting a different make in wont fix a leak.

No ENL would not do this
