Engine Oil Consumption
A certain amount of oil consumption is
normal. The rate of consumption will
depend on the following:
• The quality and viscosity of the oil.
• The amount of oxidation and dilution
of the oil.
• Climatic conditions.
• The speed at which the engine is
being operated.
• Road conditions.
Drivers should expect above normal
consumption when the engine is new, and
after running-in if high speeds are
sustained.
