Consumer Description

CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL. NO LEAKS, JUST BURNS OIL. WHEN OIL IS EMPTY, NO CHECK OIL LIGHT COMES ON. MUST ADD OIL CONSTANTLY. MY MECHANIC SAID I HAD 'NO OIL' IN MY ENGINE DURING MY LAST CHECK. HE FILLED IT UP AND THEN I DECIDED TO CHECK IT MYSELF A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER AND THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING.
