I had the same experience with the Liquid Moly Engine Flush over a year ago and my Camry still burns oil. Now, going to try Amsoil Engine Flush and their OE Full Synthetic before I give up. No leaks or smoking, just have to topoff. It does run smooth I might add. PCV was changed, so I did eliminate a few culprits.

Hey. I've got a M54B25 engine, and use 5w40 ravenol and am burning 800-1200ML to 1000km. The car smokes a lot when hot (valve seals and piston rings no doubt) Im thinking about Castrol 5w50, what do you think? During summer, i get 34+ temperatures and in the winter, it goes like -3 most of the time at maximum, othervise little above 0 (all temps in celsius) Do you think the 5w50 is a good idea? I run the car quite passionately, so it burrnssss

New tie rods inner and outter, passanger cv axle, control arms and thrust arms. Car feels like it's not connected to the road at all. It dosen't have servo or electronic power steering. I thought if the power steering was broken then it would be hard to turn. It's either the rack or the steering shaft. When I turn the steering wheel the wheels turn with the steering wheel but I have to put more input into the steering wheel to make the turn. Left or right turns my steering wheel damn near goes to full lock.

That doesn't sound right. Are you sure you compression tested the engine correctly? Does the car have trouble starting when cold? Follow these instructions, make sure ALL spark plugs are removed when cranking. Test it without and then add a little bit of oil to the cylinders and compare the values. If the same...

My car is starting without struggling, only problem is that I have rough idle few seconds, after I cleaned spark plugs, that tough idle disappeared, another thing is that I have cats error on almost every time , is during a little bit after I clean error code to reappear again.Is strange even for me , because I can run pretty fast, the engine revs at the max RPM without struggling, I go even with 200 km/h on highway. Could be possible to be a timing chain problem, valvetronic or a headgasket?I really don't understand, for this compression my car should smoke oil on exhaust like a diesel but mine doesnt smoke ...

In the handbook of my car, it says to use a 5W-40 Oil ONLY... My 1998 Toyota Celica has covered 236,000 Miles and is fitted with a 1.8 Litre 7A-FE 4 Cylinder DOHC engine ..OK it only produces a paltry 113 BHP ..However, the speed limit on our Motorways here in the UK (Freeways for American viewers) is 112 KM/H ( 70 MPH) and my car does this with comparable ease. My car is burning a litre of oil every 1,000 Kilometers.. Here in the UK a litre of oil costs around £5.60 GBP (5 Litres cost me £28) I drive around 1500 KM a Month ..So let's look at the cost for me. Option one ..... Top up the oil using 5W-40 as and when required 1.5 Litres per month...Total cost £5.60 x 1.5 = £8.40 GBP of oil a month Option two..... Swop the oil and use a 5W-50 oil and RISK the engine blowing up..... Total cost Around £3,000 GBP for an engine rebuild. I WILL SELECT OPTION ONE..... It is a "No brainer" 😁 But thank you for this video anyway.

It depends what is the source of your oil being burned. If it's oil separator, then viscosity won't make it any better. In my Porsche 16.6 cSt oil is being burned like crazy, 18.5 cSt has 0 consumption.

Yes, if it's the CCV, nothing you can do. On an n52 is the piston design that causes burning. A thicker oil helps only a little bit which causing increased fuel consumption.

The last service I did was spark plugs and eccentric shaft sensor( didnt re learn / program new sensor ) I also replaced the fuel pump module with a used one as my other one was overheating and would shut off causing the car to jump into limp mode until I unplugged it and re connect Please let me know any advice or I can send you a video

I have a 2008 Honda accord 2.4L. Honda posted a tsb service bulletin stating that stuck piston rings cause unusually high engine oil consumption. 800-900 miles later I’m putting a quart of oil in my car. More than likely the culprit is stuck piston rings like Honda themselves stated, so I’m gonna try engine flush on 3 seperate oil changes and hopefully it works out. I’m also going to try seafoam in crankcase for 300 miles before my next oil change!
