Hi all, I know there is a number of oil consumption threads, and I had seen at one time some discussion of oil brands affecting the oil consumption. I cannot re-find the thread I had seen some of that on.
I have a 2014 lx awd, with 98K on it. bought it off lease with 36k. I live in Wis. so I see cold weather. I have a 43mile commute each way, all highway. I use mobile-1 extended life with the mobile-1 extended life filters as well. typically would do an oil change when the millage minder called for it. check my oil usually every other gas fill up. this last oil change interval i have put in at least 5 quarts over the entire millage. (0W-20)
My question is do others see a non-issue with the oil consumption with different brands? would switching to Casrol, Valvoline, Penzoil, Amzoil be a better alternative?
Been searching Bob-the-oil-guy as well.
thanks for any input or links to other threads.
