[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 372554, member: 4527"] Engine oil won't just vanish like that. Especially we are talking about 1L in 2.3k km. Must look for signs like wet car park, wet tail pipe, wet engine body, oily spark plugs, even your coolant, for signs of seepage into you coolant thru worn gasket. If I were you, I will top up the oil and see what happen next. And since you have a limited time warranty coverage, perhaps seek a 2nd workshop opinion so if there's a chance to exploit the warranty, you can take advantage of it. Did you check you dipstick after the recent oil change? If your workshop short change u and end up you ask them to do top overhaul, sounds like a profitable business model.. :eek: [/QUOTE]
