Mitsubishi and Volvo (with mitsu. engines) have direct injection petrol engines. They call them GDI, for Gasoline Direct Injection. Of course the D makes everyone think they are diesels.

Not to worry about the paragraphs Alan I understood
Strange that they get deleted.

After posting all that up about what happens inside your engine and why you need oil ... I checked mine yesterday, needed a litre

Funnily enough the car's now quieter and smoother, and seems to use less fuel although it'll be a couple of days before I need to fill up to check.
