Does your car burn oil?

M4LAKA · 01-01-2015, 10:43 PM

My buddy has a 2014 M6, and he goes for a top up every 2-3000km. I have about 17,000km on my car and try to check it every 1000km, and it always reads at the max. (He has about 30,000km on his). He had the same problem with his 2008 M6.

Does anybody's car burn oil??

Not yet in the M3. My 135i used coolant, which I thought was odd with no leaks

4xxx miles, no burning oil. 100% stock car

I babied my car during break in, I wonder if that's why?
He got a off demo car with 5000km so who knows what went on before he got his.

4000 miles , always reads at max. Figured I would've burned at least a little. But no I guess

S63tu burns tons of oil. S55 so far doesn't look to (like the N55). That is normal for your friends M6 and the one before it as well (S85).

almost 7500 miles in 4 months and it still reads max LOL

Compared to my 335i it would have been half by now or need a fill, On top of how I drive I'm just really surprised that it still reads full which is why its quite funny to me.

I had to add a quart at around 4k miles i hope it doesnt turn into a oil hog like the 335is

First m car I know of that doesn't burn oil. It's been 4000 miles since my breakin service and it reads full.

as far as I know many prior m owners were used to a quart of 10w60 every 1000-2000 miles at $14 per quart or liter.
