New to the board so hello to all!
I checked my oil the other day on my 05 grand cherokee with 5.7 hemi. Stick was reading just below the safe zone which in a 7qt fill is about a 1qt-1.5 loss. The oil had just under 5k. Engine only has 38k. Been running PP for at least 15k in the jeep. Usually use a 5-6k OCI. It doesn't smoke leak or show any signs of lossing oil and runs like a bat out of [censored]. Plus I don't tow with it nor do I beat it.
Iknow I'm not helping much cause I usually have the quick lube place do it plus being lazy I never checked to see what the levels ever are. This day I just so happen decided to look at it.
Is this consumption normal or are they shortening me?
I did do a change once I seen this. I didn't use PP cause I had 4qt of RP from a previous vehicle that I exchanged for the proper grade for the hemi and will follow up on the levels.
