Is my engine damaged?

I have just bought a nissan qashqai 2015 manual i have check the level of oil manualy and i have to put around 3liter of oil to fill the second line and the indicater have not put a signial to let me know that the oil is low. My question is i dont know if there will be damage on my engine or not

Our answer:

Hi Jean,

It isn't possible for you or me to say if the engine is damaged, I'm afraid, and it would probably take a complete engine strip-down to be able to say for certain. If there was no oil pressure light illuminating then perhaps it wasn't as low as you think.

Keep an eye on the level over the next few days to ensure nothing is amiss.
