Even with a new car,unless it burns more than a quart in 500 miles dealers will not do anything for you under warranty. So yes experts consider it normal.

How much oil do I put in my car 19 00 cc

1. Turn off engine ,
2. Take of oil cap on engine
3. Put in a little oil in oil filler hole of engine.
4. then pull out the oil dip stick from engine
5. and clean the dip stick on a rag.
6. Put dip stick back in engine
7. pull out again and check the level showing on the dip Stick
8. If level is too low on dip stick and is not at full level go back to step 1

These steps ensures you avoid over filling the engine with oil

Tip for beginners
The 4 litre oil bottle is way too much oil for an engine to handle.
If you have a full 4 litre oil plastic bottle square shape . hold the bottle on its side to pour the oil out slowly and smoothly.

What's your question?my Isuzu 4ja1 engine .my problem is the oil comes from deep stick

i think you mean
when running the engine
the DIP STICK seal as it fits the dip stick tube end. leaks oil
this a bad PCV valve.
excess crank case pressures.... cause by not doing service on car.
or worse a very worn out engine with huge blow by gassed.
is engine miles high? over 300k? miles?
or the dips stick seal there is bad.... looking at it tells you that.

Red oil light stays on at high rpm.reads 139 at idle

Check the sending unit for the oil then check the oil pump. I bet on the oil pump being bad.

What are the oil change guidelines for 2005 E-350 superduty chassis with more than 90,000 miles...the same question for the transmission fluids?

The good practice is to change the oil every 3,000 miles...but what really dictates this is what type of driving condition you are incurring.

If you drive all highway miles then an oil change between 1,500 and 3,000 miles is highly encouraged.

Dirty/dusty conditions....definitely around 1,500 to 2,000 miles.

The average for tranny fluid/filter changes goes from the additional 60-90,000 mile mark and then every 50,000-60,000 miles after that....it is shortened by heavy duty and dirty/dusty conditions.

2005 buick Lacrosse fuel filter and other problems...

No a Plugged fuel filter would not cause more fuel consumption but would lead to damage to the injectors and the fuel pump, and is much cheeper than the fuel pump or injectors. And I believe you mean Flex plate broke? And I do believe you should check with the dealer this unit should have a 100,000 drive train warrenty and they should kick in on the transmisson.
