Re: Are You Using Oil?

Just for balance, I have not spent a penny on the car other than servicing and tyres since i bought it two years ago. The engine/gearbox combo is brilliant!! Its fuel efficient, it does burn oil but surely its designed to do so?! Unfortunately, engines will fail if people do not top up oil regularly...

Re: Are You Using Oil?

Ive had a Polo 6R 2011 plate for just over two years. When i first got it (20k on the clock)it used a litre about every 600-800 miles. I took it back to VW and they carried out the standard , breather pipe and electronic updates. The car now has 50k on the clock and oil usage has really dropped off....
