Hi
What is the normal oil consumption for C4 VTS 2.0 16V ( 180 HP ) ? My car has 290,000 KM ( no oil leaks ) and the oil consumption is 1Kg for 5700 KM. Is that normal ?
Thanka

Re: C4 VTS 2.0 16V Oil consumption
Indeed, but an interesting read, considering what some manufacturers class using a (US) quart of oil (circa 1Lt) as normal oil consumption over 1000 miles! I can’t get my head around that to be honest, maybe they are talking for the first few thousand miles of an engine, otherwise it’ll be using more oil that petrol!

Re: C4 VTS 2.0 16V Oil consumption
Back in the days of the Hillman Minx Rootes reckoned that a car doing 1000 miles to a pint was satisfactory, oil usage above that and it required stripping and new piston rings fitted. (under guarantee)
Ps. the writer of that column is talking American quarts.
1 UK quart = 1.2 US quarts.
