Oil Usage - members poll
By Bomber - usenet poster
Hi. Can I get an idea about how much oil people car's are using. My
e46 320 coupe got topped up about a month ago because the yellow oil
light was on. The light is back on now so I reckon I've a problem, but
before that it needed a top up about 6 months ago.
How often does everyone else need to top on and on what model? Cheers.

E36 323i Sport Touring automatic 1999 M52 (alusil) engine. No top ups needed
between services at all and I *do* use the revs too. I use Millers or
Halfords own fully synthetic 5W50.

E38 728i 1996 My local garage said 750 miles per litre is 'OK' anything less
than that would need investigating.

How many miles before you are topping off? And how many miles are on the
engine?

Our '91 E34 525i M50 has 190K and uses 1 qt per 2000 miles.
My '2001 E46 330xi has 110K and uses 1qt per 2500 miles.
If it were 1qt per 1K miles I'd worry.

My E36 325i didn't use any. My E46 M3 uses some after about 7500k
miles. My E38 doesn't use any (other than feeding it to the spark
plugs) but it does tell em quite frequently that the oil level is low
(which it isn't.) When I drained the oil after I first bought it
there was about 2 extra litres/quarts in it.

Thanks everyone. I've a 65 mile round trip to work. Put about 600
miles on since the last top up. Last topped up with Mobil 0W40.
I rarely really use the revs hard on the straight 6 but I do let it
live a bit. Maybe some 5w30 would be a bit better. Or maybe my engine
needs abit of work. The car is 2001 with 41k on. This ain't looking
good is it!. R.
