Does the ea839 engine burn oil?

[McPeter]

Generally, the ea839 engine does not experience oil burning issues, as it is a later improved version by Volkswagen. The previous oil burning problems are almost non-existent in this engine. Below is relevant information about engine oil burning: 1. Main causes: Primarily due to piston ring damage causing cylinder leakage, allowing oil to enter the combustion chamber. The main symptom of engine oil burning is blue smoke from the exhaust pipe. The engine may shake at idle, and engine oil may be significantly low during a routine maintenance cycle. Prolonged oil burning not only leads to greater oil consumption but also increases carbon deposits in the combustion chamber due to impurities from burning oil, thereby affecting engine performance. 2. Main symptoms: The primary symptom of engine oil burning is blue smoke from the exhaust pipe. The engine may shake at idle, and engine oil may be significantly low during a routine maintenance cycle. Oil burning occurs when engine oil enters the combustion chamber through certain pathways and burns along with the air-fuel mixture. This is mainly due to piston ring damage causing cylinder leakage, allowing oil to enter the combustion chamber. Prolonged oil burning not only leads to greater oil consumption but also increases carbon deposits in the combustion chamber due to impurities from burning oil, thereby affecting engine performance.
