Is Oil Consumption an Issue in Older Azuki Swift Engines in Pakistan?

Some owners of used o r high-mileage Swift models in Pakistan report excessive engine oil consumption between service intervals. Is this due to engine wear, poor maintenance history, o r is it a design issue in older Swift engines?

Yes, higher-than-normal oil consumption is reported in older o r high-mileage Swifts, particularly imported JDM models. Common causes include:

Worn piston rings o r valve seals: Allows oil to burn in the combustion chamber.

PCV valve failure: Can cause oil to be sucked into the intake system.

Overheating history: Engines that have overheated in the past may have damaged components.

Infrequent oil changes o r poor-quality oil: Leads to faster internal wear.

Monitoring oil levels regularly and switching to a slightly thicker oil grade as recommended by a trusted mechanic can help reduce consumption, though engine rebuilds may be needed in severe cases.
