Oil consumption

OIL CONSUMPTION MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
a) Filling to the maximum level
The operation must be carried out with the engine hot (one rotation of the cooling fan assembly) and af-
ter settling for 15 minutes to allow all the oil to drain into the sump.
Check visually using the dipstick.
Top up to the maximum level.
Seal the drain plug (with a paint mark on both the filler plug and the sump’s drain plug) in order to be
able to check later that it has not been removed.
b) Customer driving
Ask the customer to drive the vehicle for a period corresponding to about 1250 miles (2,000 km) or before
the minimum level is reached.
c) Refilling to the maximum level
The operation must be carried out with the engine hot (one rotation of the cooling fan assembly) and af-
ter a settling time of 15 minutes.
Check visually using the dipstick.
Top up to the maximum level.
Note the quantity of oil and the mileage covered since the last filling to the maximum level.
