Oil Consumption

[Lewski]

Yes don't throw fist at the topic
I am asking somebody in a slow down way to explain the new oil consumption situation.
So far I read our engine now might consume 1 quart of oil between oil changes and we might have to add some before your next oil change.
I also read a person who's ST went two quart low and had to get a new engine.
3rd their is a company selling a new oil pan to fix this problem .

WOW !

I'm not one for a ton of words. So I will say this, check your oil when you are filling up with fuel. Observe and note how your motor operates in relation to oil consumption. Act accordingly.
Also, the bigger oil pan is a good idea if you're launching your ExST. If normal old man driving like me, you're good.
My 21 didn't consume any oil between changes, my schedule is every 5k miles. I'm in a 25 presently, 5k miles and 2 oil changes. No observed consumption.

Thanks for the reply

I get what you saying its a owner job to maintain their vehicle

Last one report says hard cornering can starve the oil pump.
Overfilling helps mitigate this ,So some people are overfilling by a 1/4 of a quart of oil
