i just changed my oil. the oil was changed at the dealership with 22,xxx odometer and now it has 25,3xx. i dumped the old oil into the empty bottle and it measured about 3 quarts. is that normal for it to consume about 2 quarts? i have an 06. does it seem like it has the oil consumption problem?

 

Ugh. Yes, take it to the dealership.

 

 

alright ill take it this weekend

 

this is the HR section, not tryin to be a d!ck but some people will throw a fit over something like this. also search a little harder, there are a bunch of threads about the 06 rev-up motor and oil consumption issues. you'll get a new motor if its bad.

 

"Think with yer dipstick Jimmy!"

 

another 06 oil consumption issue, GL!

 

My friend just got a new motor in his 06 and he did his second oil change and only 3 quarts came out too.

I dont think theres any revups that dont consume oil.

 

thats actually normal if it doesnt consume oil then its a defective rev up lol. Welcome to the club.

 

So far so good on mine. 28k miles.

 

It would be awesome if they'd just do an HR conversion on that beast. Although that would be a little more than just the block itself. But, one can dream .

 

To quote SCC from the good 'ol days: "pull up your man pants and add more oil"

 

Does anyone know if the vq35de's had this same oil consumption issue as well? I did my oil change yesterday and only 3.5 quarts came out??? It's a 05 Anniversary Edition btw.

 

There's usually a good bit of oil in the oil filter. Go by dipstick reading over time.

 

Aren't they revups?

 

Well I kno the HR motors had a lot of oil consumption problems but havent heard much on the DE's and no not all Anniversary models are rev-ups only the 6spd version was (300 hp 7000rpm redline as opposed to the 5spd automatic 287hp 6700 redline)

 

Rev-ups ('06) had oil problems, not the HR.
