R500D Oil usage ?
Discussion
Interested in the level of oil consumption other R500 owners (or indeed R300/R400D owners) are typically seeing, along with associated driving style (mild/med road, fast road, track..etc.). I bought mine at around 4000km, done about 4000km since then. Used ~4L of oil already. This has caught me by surprise..not expecting such a high oil usage. Any advice, please? Thanks!
thanks Guys. really appreciate the fast response and detail. So sounds like mine is using maybe more than normal, but very dependent on driving style. I have done a lot of km on the autobahns here in Germany and with the 6 speed Caterham box, this means high revs
