How Soon Does the Volkswagen Sagitar Start Burning Engine Oil?

Generally, it does not burn engine oil within about 100,000 kilometers. Beyond 100,000 kilometers, it depends on your maintenance condition. There are many possible reasons for engine oil burning, such as using poor-quality oil or oil with viscosity grades that do not meet the requirements. Low-quality engine oil can lead to increased wear. Additionally, oil viscosity that is too low or too high can cause poor engine lubrication, increasing wear on piston rings and cylinder walls, reducing sealing performance, and resulting in oil burning. Below are the reasons for oil burning: 1. Excessive clearance between piston rings and cylinder walls, improper installation of piston rings, or degraded sealing performance allows oil on the cylinder walls to enter the combustion chamber, causing oil burning. Moreover, poor sealing performance of valve seals, damage to the crankcase forced ventilation valve (PCV), or clogged crankcase ventilation ports can increase crankcase pressure, allowing oil to enter the cylinder along with crankcase gases and participate in combustion. 2. Overfilling of engine oil can also cause oil burning. When the oil level exceeds the midpoint, excessive oil pressure can cause more oil to splash into the combustion chamber during engine lubrication. Turbocharger oil leakage. The turbocharger is installed at the front end of the exhaust pipe and operates at very high temperatures. During full-load engine operation, the turbine and pump wheel can reach speeds of 10,000 to 20,000 RPM per minute.
