Description of the problem | My kia soul is burning oil every 1,000 excessively. Kia says it isn't burning that much. My dealer thinks it is. My car had the oil light come on in december. Received an oil change. February comes to start my consumption tests. My dipstick reads low level. I started 3 tests and they all 3 came up with different readings but burning oil at a rapid rate. I did testing each 1,000 miles. The 2nd test my car burnt a quart. I do think my car is burning at a rapid rate. It is a 2014 kia soul with 94,000 miles. I bought brand new, only owner is me from my dealership. |
