If the oil light stays on in a Renault Espace, it could indicate low oil pressure, which may be caused by insufficient oil levels, a faulty oil pressure sensor, or a problem with the oil pump. It's essential to check the oil level and top it up if necessary. If the oil level is adequate and the light remains on, it’s advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a mechanic to prevent potential engine damage. Ignoring the warning could lead to serious issues.
No, it can't. Not from the oil cooler.
10w 40 semi synthetic is what you need
I had a diesel espace and it has wet liners so a blown head gasket would cause this

if you sit at the front of the car the filler hole will be on the right just at the back of the box.
To check the engine oil level in a Renault Espace, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is cool. Open the hood and locate the dipstick, usually marked with a colored handle. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean with a cloth, then reinsert it fully and remove it again to check the oil level against the markings. If necessary, add the appropriate oil type through the oil filler cap, ensuring not to overfill.

On the Renault Espace 4, the oil filler for the automatic gearbox is typically located on the side of the transmission housing. To add oil, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is warm. Remove the filler plug, and using a suitable funnel, add the appropriate automatic transmission fluid until it reaches the correct level. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific fluid type and quantity.
Put some oil in the engine. This warning light means your oil level is low.
In a Renault Espace, the dipstick is typically located near the engine, usually towards the front or side. To access it, open the hood and look for a yellow or orange handle, which indicates the dipstick's location. Pull it out, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then check the oil level to ensure it's within the recommended range. Always consult your owner’s manual for specific instructions related to your model year.
To change the gearbox oil, use a jack to lift the car and get underneath it. There is a duct under the gearbox that can be opened using a spanner. This will let the oil flow out. Close the cap again and refill oil from the oil cap which is located in the hood of the car.
My understanding of exhaust smoke is that Blue is oil, Black is unburnt fuel, White is unburnt diesel on cold start. The main question would be, how much smoke and when does it do it?
