Evening all
I have an 11 month old 2.2 puma powered 110, it went in for its first service at ~14k with minor unrelated issues, from around 19k the oil consumption has increased dramatically from virtually none to 1 litre every 200 miles or so!!!
I always park in the same place and there is no sign of any 'deposits' on the drive, the water level has gone down a bit but is still the bright pink antifreeze colour with no sign of froth or oil at all... I have not noticed any smoking from the exhaust.
It is going back in for it's second service in a couple of weeks (current mileage ~23k) and I suspect I will get a lot of blank looks as the computer won't tell them the answer!
The vehicle is primarily a road vehicle doing a mix of town driving and probably 80% dual carriageway / motorway so lots of sitting at 69.5mph at 2500rpm or thereabouts.
Has anyone had any similar experiences? What was the outcome?
I have my own thoughts but would appreciate the thoughts / experiences of others!
Thanks, Tim.
