hey guys i got an 05 s2k with 56k miles on it . ive been using castrol sythetic with no problems . last oil change ide say abouut 800 miles ago i switched to mobile 1 synthetic n theres some oil comsumption is this normal . ws mobile one the cause ? i used to use mobile one in my previous s2k (ap1) and it would drink a lil oil also . is this normal ? im thinking of going back to castrol what u guys think ?

 

my 05 doesn't burn any oil with mobil 1 or pennzoil

 

More than a few S2000s have oil burning issues with M1. Just something about that oil...

 

not just s2000's, most of Honda's high revving VTEC engines seem to burn mobil 1

 

Switching to Amsoil stopped my little oil consumption on my AP2.

 

04 with 53,000 miles, never any oil consumption with chevron 10/30 wt from costco...never.

 

my car burns 4 quarts my last oil change, (mobile 1)
i was stunned,but im a ap1 so i should burn more oil,
but it always got me checking the oil everytime i have the spare time

next oil change ima go Amsoil and lets see how that works (:

 

wow theres alot of people burning oil lol i thought i was one of the few . yea its something with mobile 1 i dont what . but mobile 1 seems to perform the best that y i keep using it . imma try amsoil next time see if that helps . and wow 4 quarts ? thats alot . do u feel anything wrong performance wise ?

 

4 quarts is a lot of oil. I used to burn about a quart over 8k miles when I used M1. I switched to Valvoline and it seems to burn less that an 1/8.

 

170k miles on my ap1 and I've been using mobil 1 and I usually loose between 1-2 quarts every oil change. I've gotten used to checking it every now and then.
I might go a different route this oil change and try out the castrol or a diff brand to see if I see the same type of consumption.
