Less miles per fill up and lots of average mileage data.
My hyandai Sonata starting going through oil like crazy
with under 70k miles, it would go through 3 quarts at least
before the next 3k pill change. At this time we had been
averaging 380-410 miles per fill up. We were asked to
document weekly for the next month or 3000 mile period
to determine how much oil was bring used, which again
didn't last and had to put another quart of oil in engine
before it ran dry. With a extended warranty we were able to
get approved for a new engine, a month later and months
of arguing with dealership that there was something
wrong they replaced it. Here's the crazy part, a few weeks
to a month later we noticed with fill up we were only
getting 220 miles per fill up and when it gauge showed
about a third to a quarter of gas left the miles per empty
would go blank?????? The dealer ship took the car again
and for a month looked for codes and nothing came up,
nothing fixed told us the engine needed to be broke in. A
friend that week while helping us look found a broken air
intake house that went to 3 different places like the
Master cylinder, engine block etc. With a so called new
engine and averaging nearly half of the miles before what
could be the problem, please please give me some
ideas.....
