oil consumption
Friday, July 03, 2009 5:36 PM
Got a question, my 04 Ls sedan with 126k miles on it was suddenly down a 1/2 a quart of oil when i took it in for an oil change. Is that any cause for concern, i ask because until now my oil level has always been full. The tech insisted i didn't have a leak anywhere, i just wondered if it was normal for the ecos to burn or consume a lot of oil once they hit 100k plus. It sounded suspicious to me, but maybe it's just an eco thing.

Wow... half a quart.

Sounds like you need to just post the car on craigslist and get rid of it ASAP.

Nah, was just a question never had it use any oil between changes before so it just sounded kinda odd to me. I know the older 2.2's the ohv ones, i think i remember seeing on here had problems with oil consumption. Grant you half a quart isn't a whole lot no just a surprise to me is all.
