Burning Oil

Post by RGoose18 »

My R is burning oil :evil: Not much, but enough to put in about 1/2 quart - 1 quart in between oil changes. Is this normal??

If you use Mobil 1 than it's perfectly "normal". Mobil 1 seems to disappear more than other oils in quite a number of Bseries motors. And some usage is normal if you drive the car hard.

Yeah mine does the same thing, i have to put a quart in every 1600 miles, i told my acura dealer and they told me to keep a log and give it to them after i have collected some data about the oil consumption and then they will check with acura tech to see if it is burning it will in normal parameters.
