Why does the Santana consume engine oil?
1 Answers
The reason why the Santana consumes engine oil is: In turbocharged vehicles, engine oil serves functions such as cooling, sealing, and lubrication. The additional workload of the turbocharger generates substantial heat in the engine. Relying on the cooling effect of the engine oil leads to its rapid evaporation, resulting in the phenomenon of oil consumption.
