Why cant you try a better oil for your car? Mobil, Castrol, Shell? why are you using cheap crap?

My thoughts exactly –

I’m no fan of KIA but I feel it’s a good machine compared to the shitty Indian junk we have as jeeps

At least go for Caltex and see; if you can’t be bothered with brands such as those given by KIM

As you are using the cheaper mono grade oil why can't you try Mobil Super XHP 15W-40 multi grade Mineral oil? As far as I know there is no complaints about it.

Burning oil is not the problem with the make. Better you check the engine. There may be some problems with the mechanism.

I agree with you. The said burning oil broblem is not a problem of il manufacturer. If you (the topic generator) have the smoke test certificate it will be a good measure if your engine actually burns the oil or pass the oil to some other location.

well, in the first post he had mentioned that a engine repair has been done from the company too. wot more to be expected? i cant believe someone using a KIA SUV had to use such a crappy cheap oil..? paying a decent amount for the car it self. sad 2 hear these..

i think its better if you do the easiest and cheapest thing first. change the oil and see. i think my uncle is using castrol gtx for his kia jeep( sorento). and then you can com to a conclusion. if not i feel that its your piston rings which is giving you the problem.
