Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of usage for the vehicle, the
engine is bedding in, therefore the engine oil
consumption may settle down only after the first
5,000 - 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on
driving style and the conditions under which the car
is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the
engine run for a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after switching it off before checking the level.
