Alfa Romeo 166 Booklet page 215

When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered sta-
bilised after the first 5000-6000 km.
The oil consumption depends on driving
style and the conditions under which the
car is used.
WARNING
To avoid burns particular
care should be taken
when working inside the engine
compartment when the engine is
warm.
