Oil consumption in internal combustion engines is understood as oil consumption as a result of its combustion and in no case its leakage from the oil bath, cylinder head, etc. due to depressurization.
Normal oil consumption occurs in small quantities in the cylinders; when removing products of combustion and friction. In addition, the oil wears out due to the high temperatures and pressures it is subjected to while the engine is running.
Among other things, consumption is influenced by operating conditions, driving style, as well as tolerances in the manufacture of parts. The maximum oil consumption should be 1.5 liters per 1000 km.
Oil must be topped up when the level reaches the mark "Nachfule" (Topping up).
