Have you got the 100bhp petrol version by any chance?

[jamesthomas404]

Mines the same mate, its doing my head in why its using so much. Its not burning it because there is no blue smoke and it is not leaking because there is no oil spots on the drive

[jamesthomas404]

ye its the same with mine, uses about a litre every 1000 miles. taking the p*** haha

Thats insance? Surely something is going wrong somewhere.

[jamesthomas404]

I’ve got the same problem. I’ve top up a litre in the last 3,000miles. Thought it was a little strange but put it down to a lot of Motorway Miles. Plus it isn’t as bad as my old Punto lol.

I don’t think its anything to worry about though…I hope!
