To reduce o r prevent this issue:

✅ Use high-quality synthetic o r semi-synthetic oil of the correct grade e.g., 5W-30
✅ Change oil every 5,000–7,000 km, especially in city driving
✅ Avoid over-revving the engine in traffic o r on inclines
✅ Flush engine oil every 20,000 km to clean sludge
✅ Inspect for leaks during every oil change
✅ Use OEM o r trusted brand oil filters
✅ Avoid idling unnecessarily in traffic o r heat

These steps can greatly minimize oil consumption issues, especially under Pakistani road and weather conditions.
