    Default VY Ecotech Oil Consumption

    Hi I was wondering what sort of oil consumption people with an Ecotech are gettign with around 143,000km. Also servicing my car today the auto needed about a litre of Dexron 3 and I can't seem to see any leaks or signs of fluid under the car. Anyone got any ideas? It may just have been underfilled last time it was serviced I will keep my eye on the level more often for a while.

    Mine has 124,000 and uses roughly 100-200mls between changes (6,000-7,000) Bit of a worry about the tranny fluid, Mine only dropped a bit once when the pan gasket started leaking, but I noticed the fluid on the floor of the carport before I noticed the dipstick level dropping.
    Some one else may have some ideas?
    'Ah well, I suppose it had to come to this.'
