■ Engine oil consumption
Some engine oil will be consumed while driving. Under the following conditions, oil consumption can be increased and thus require refilling between
maintenance intervals:
● When the engine is new and within the break-in period
● When the engine oil is of lower quality
● When the incorrect oil viscosity is used
● When engine braking is employed
