[QUOTE="ersalle, post: 122971, member: 363"] Oil seals are always the main culprits especially at the crankcase on older engines. Mine also previously using mineral oil also the oil level drops to 3/4 level when reaching 8000km of driving. After replacing oil seal, now using shell helix plus(semi-synth) drops a bit upon reaching 10000km :ok: Check on the oil seals, valve cover gaskets etc for leakage before using semi synth or fully synthetic.
