    Are Oils Oils?

    CASTROL EDGE PROFESSIONAL C1 5W-30

    so if I am in Upperkumbuctawest and the thing is at the low mark,,,

    is there a common alternative?
    I will, at the next service, ensure I buy a couple of litres to put aside..

    but thats not for another 6-7 thousand kays..
    (I plan on doing 12K changes,, IF it will do that, its two marks down after 5K
    I dont mind the usage, it works pretty hard for its keep..)

    If it’s chewing oil - that’s not acceptable.
    It doesn’t work any harder than thousand of those that aren’t burning oil.

    Did you follow the guidelines for bedding in the vehicle? No towing before a certain number of kilometres etc?

    As a top up - any C1 oil, then change asap.

    And get it checked - burning oil shouldn’t be happening.
