Just wondered how much oil if any my 320ci should be using? I think i may have a faulty sensor (amber) that comes on in the morning when i start the car but goes out after a few minutes. When i check the oil level it's fine and i monitor the oil regularly however after a period of about 4 weeks the oil level drops from max to roughly min? Just wondered if this is normal consumption or do i have a leak or something more serious. I do about 2000 miles a month mainly motorway driving.
Also i use recommended 0-30w fully synthetic long life oil recommended, so i'm told for this model of car. I change oil and filter every 7500 miles due to covering a lot of miles. Will using a more common (cheaper) grade of oil make any difference as the 0-30w is quite expensive £65 for 8 litre's. Also i'm quite sure the indepenent garage that services my car doesn't use this grade of oil when servicing?
Any feedback gratefully appreciated!
