my crv 2000 model is due for another 10K pms. Nasa 95K kms na ang odo.
i bought it 2nd hand and after my fisrt pms at 85K, i have added 1 liter of oil with in the 10K span. wala naman tulo ng langis sa ilalim or mixing with water sa radiator or white smoke emission. saan kaya napupunta yung nawawalang oil?

Are you using mineral or synthetic? You can't use mineral oil for a 10k interval.

well it has to go somewhere. you are losing around 25% of engine oil per 10K km. How long po ba bago mo na reach 10K? 8-12 months? if so, around 100 ml of oil per month nawawala sa iyo. Kung sa leaks yun, imposible hindi mo makikita pag accumulate pwera na lang kung monthly e nag papa engine wash ka. so pag hindi sa leak, baka naman sa piston ring na lumulusot. sa hina ng oil consumption kaya baka hindi mo gaano pansin ang bluish smoke.

siguro observe mo na lang muna kung talagang nagbabawas ng langis o kaya naman dalhin mo na sa repair shop. pwede mo ring pa analyze exhaust mo para malaman kung may nasusunog nga bang langis.

sir , my last pms was nov 08 so bali 5 months. when i registered the car last march, the smoke emission was perfect & up to now, there's hardly any smoke being observed even in the morning when the engine is cold.
it's going for another pms so i'll just talk about it with my mechanic since i'm planning to change timing belts na rin. i'm just really puzzled where it's ending up since i've got no slightest idea nor sign. Salamat uli.
