Default Re: Flathead smoke

Sounds like it's getting better, so why disrupt the healing process?
I bought a new Audi in 2003 and after the first 800 miles the low oil warning came on. I filled the oil and after 800 miles it came on again. I freaked out and complained about it but they said oil consumption on a new engine was normal. The periods between losses increased, but it took 10,000 miles for all oil loss to stop. Ran the car for 100,000 more miles with never any loss between oil changes.
