Sounds like massive faking to me.

JT> And there is a price to pay for that.

I find it VERY hard to believe that burning THAT much
oil does good things for the exhaust emission John.

Someones got his dick in his hand.

They're telling a pack of lies. Its that basic.

JT> Going on the rate of 2.5L per 1000Km and his average
JT> of 26,000Km in the past year, if he had the newer
JT> motor, That equates to 65 litres of oil in one year.

JT> That's not oil changes, but oil out the exhaust pipe.

Yeah, which must do wonders for the fucking emissions.

Thats getting to the sort of oil burning rates that
sees older cars fail their fucking rego for burning oil.
