JonnyPot Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I own a 2012 Ford Focus (Mark 3) 1.6 ti vct (petrol) with nearly 19 000 miles on the clock. How much engine oil (in ml) should this engine be using for how many miles of driving e.g. 500ml for 2000 miles of driving. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsblue Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I should of thought it would use next to no oil, of all the 1.6 16v petrol ones I've owned, none of them have used oil, the lowest mileage I've owned was 5k miles, the highest 70k miles, none of them used a drop! Have you checked for any leaks or any blue smoke from the exhaust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_Tango Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Not used any on mine as far as I can tell, although I do need to have an oil change soon mainly for my peace of mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastlife91 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 should use no oil, especially on a 4 year old car. some older cars, approx. 15 years old + will consume some oil which is considered normal so long as it doesn't exceed past a certain amount. as said though, a 4 year old car should consume no oil. have it checked for oil leaks or see if any blue some is emitted via the exhaust, smell it and decide if it smells unusual, it could be burning oil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
