Love reading that and you know it burns up the pundits who insist they know better and insist 10k intervals are terrible for engines.and oil changes by the OLM which is like every 9-10k
I feel like the k24 is gentle on oil as my oil looks like new (I know looks can be deceiving) after 5k. Also my buddy takes many long trips a month which in my opinion is better than a car of similar age with very low miles of very short trips.Love reading that and you know it burns up the pundits who insist they know better and insist 10k intervals are terrible for engines.
It’s starting to, nothing terrible but a few quarts over a 10k ociReasonable amount of varnish, particularly on the right side there, but pretty reasonable accumulation given the mileage. Does it use any oil between changes?
I am at 275K with my '12 CR-V. What mileage did your friend buy the car at?It’s starting to, nothing terrible but a few quarts over a 10k oci
When it's over 30k miles a year that's very much different than someone doing 10k a year and once a year oil change. So I don't think so. People claiming 10k is never okay is the same as people claiming 10k is always fine.Love reading that and you know it burns up the pundits who insist they know better and insist 10k intervals are terrible for engines.
He bought the car brand new. I bought mine with 7 miles on it (204k now) with my first real paycheck when I started my career job.I am at 275K with my '12 CR-V. What mileage did your friend buy the car at?
I had to ask that first, because the real question I have is, has he had issues with the VTC actuator rattle and any timing chain stretch or tensioner failures in that mileage - or have you? Please reply to me in a PM, because I recognize that this is going off-topic.He bought the car brand new.

Might be a good idea to go to a heavier grade….0W/5W30 and see if the oil consumption decreases. None the less, hard to fault the oic interval with these high mileage numbersIt’s starting to, nothing terrible but a few quarts over a 10k oci
