DESCRIPTION:
*QB information added
This Technical Journal is for all engine variants.
Before diagnosing an oil consumption complaint, always check for external leakage on and around the
engine. Diagnose and repair these issues before starting an oil consumption test.
All vehicles must have an oil consumption test performed to validate excessive oil consumption prior to
further diagnosing of engine.
It is recommended to use tamper proof tape that can be sourced locally to cover oil cap and drain plug
during consumption test. (see example)
See attached guidelines for information needed in vehicle report
See attached Job aid for reference
*IMPORTANT NOTE:
When repairing a customer’s vehicle for excessive oil consumption, first check to see if vehicle is
marked with Extended Warranty QB P10207 & P10186 or QB P10206 & P10183. If customer’s
vehicle is marked for extended warranty follow instructions in QB P10207 & P10186 or QB P10206 &
P10183.
