How much oil

wanderlust4ever · Jun 13, 2009

How much does a Defender 130 Tdi normally use say per 1000 miles.
Just been on a run of say 800 miles, and had to top up the oil with about litre.
Is this normal ?????
Cheers.

So what do you think, get a new engine or what.

fook no just find out where the leak is and cure it. If it was burning oil it'd be smoking like buggery.

With the engine running take the filler cap off if isn't blowing loads of oily smoke out of it. the engines fine.
