Burning oil after Ess supercharge
Hey guys!
Sth really bothers me, after I installed my Ess supercharge I have been drive the car for 1200 miles but it already asked me to add engines oil for twice, I don't know what's wrong with my car. Does anyone knows what's possible to cause this? Also with the supercharge on will bmw dealership still be able to fix oil leaking problem? Thanks! |

you're adding more heat and pressure into the car and probably throttling it pretty good... you're going to get more blow by (film on cylinder walls getting burned off). take a peek at your engine bay and see if your valve covers are leaking... it isn't a major cause, but it might be a contributing factor.
don't add too much oil too soon. sometimes the car take a bit to take a decent measurement. its probably not too low, but you don't want to overfill it.

Once you check for leaks and address any you find, you might consider the oil you are using. I dont burn any more oil than I did before I was SCed 2 years ago. I maybe have to add a half a quart between every oil change which I do at 5k miles. It burns far more oil on the freeway cruising than when I mash the throttle in town. I redline the car most times I drive it. I use Motol 15 50 4100 power. Its designed to help reduce oil consumption on cars like ours.
