Engine oil consumption
●
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the quality of
the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.
●
More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and fre-
quent acceleration and deceleration.
●
A new engine consumes more oil.
●
When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil may
have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accurately.
●
Oil consumption: Max. 1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp.qt./600 miles (1.0 L per 1000
km). If the vehicle consumes more than this amount, contact your Lexus dealer.
