Oil consumption - Toyota Yaris Forums

pjon · 09-29-2012, 07:35 AM

I'm in the U.K., so my November 2010 Yaris D-4D will, I'm sure have the same service intervals as the OP's.
The oil and filter change interval is 10000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first.
My engine, from new, has used nil oil at all between changes. I do change oil and filter between official service intervals (6 months).
I wonder if the OP's engine has the incorrect grade of oil, i.e. 0W-30 and it's unsuitable for the higher ambient temperatures in Spain?
My car had 5W- 30 semi-synthetic from the factory and that grade has been used by the servicing dealer and myself. 0W-30 is listed as o.k. for the U.K.
