Oil and antifreeze cosmumption,around 700ml each every 10.000km,hard vibration even the engine temperature is normal,first 5min after engine start very hard to run smoothly on the road.Acting like a first time driver.Not happy for the value and the quality of the engine…
New engine/car, or used? How many km on the engine? 70 ml of oil usage per 1.000 km is nothing. Modern engines burn oil. But if coolant level is dropping, you either have a leak or a blown head gasket.
