Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is approximately 400 grams
every 1,000 km. When the car is new, the engine needs to run in,
therefore the engine oil consumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5,000 - 6,000 km.
Do not add oil with specifications other than those of the oil
already in the engine.
Used engine oil and oil filters contain substances which are
harmful to the environment. We recommend having the
oil and oil filter replaced by Alfa Romeo Authorized
Services.
