DESCRIPTION

•  Oil consumption is excessive.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

•  Improper dipstick

•  Improper engine oil viscosity

•  PCV valve malfunction

•  Engine internal parts malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP	INSPECTION	RESULTS	ACTION
1	Inspect the following: • External leakage • Proper dipstick • Proper engine oil viscosity Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results. Repeat Step 1.
1		No	Go to the next step.
2	Inspect the PCV valve. (See POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) VALVE INSPECTION [MZR 1.8, MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].) Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Replace the PCV valve and the oil separator as a single unit, then go to the next step. (See POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) VALVE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR 1.8, MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].)
2		No	Inspect the internal engine parts such as valves, valve guides, valve stem seals, cylinder head drain passage, and piston rings. Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
3	Verify test results. • If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. (See SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC INDEX [MZR 1.8, MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].) • If the malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Information and perform the repair or diagnosis. ― If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting is completed. ― If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, reprogram the PCM if a later calibration is available. Retest.
