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, frequent

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 Imp.qt./600 miles (1.0 L per 1000

km). If the vehicle consumes more than this amount, contact your Lexus dealer.
