Oil consumption
Just to check. Can you guys post your oil consumption and the way you use your car ? Out of curiosity and to check everything is as it should.
Mine (3,3t 1991 50000 miles) uses 0,5 liter every 1000 miles approx
Car is used mainly to go to the track and on the track.
Cheers

I do some spirited road driving and some gentle road driving in my 3.6
After about 4000 KM it used about 1/2 litre but there is a small oil leak (a small spot on the floor) after I park the car for a while.

My car hardly uses any oil at all between once a year oil change.
I only drive about 2-3k miles a year or so. I've added 1/2 quart thus far. The car is street driven only and not very hard at that. I do take it to the canyons from time to time. Most drives is about 1 hour each.

Sonny
