Hello,
I own a Corsa C with 1 litre Z10XE engine at 172.000 km.
My problem is that i have to put 1 liter oil at every 2500-3000 km.
I don't have any oil leak, or black smoke in emision.
I used Mobil 1 10W40, Elf 5W40 and now GM 10W40 oil, but the problem is the same.
Anybody had this problem? What should I do?

Probably burning it, but not at any great rate...

I would point at rings or valve stem seals

Well manafacturer's say that every 1000 miles a Car will use 1 litre of Oil so TBH,If you have no major problems then its proberly normal.

I wouldnt worry about it to much.Some Cars use more then others!
