2009 Honda Odyssey Engine

ENGINE OIL SERVICE WAS PERFORMED BY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AT 33,599 MILES, WHO INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL WAS LOW PRIOR TO DRAINING THE CRANK CASE. I BEGAN MONITORING ENGINE OIL QUANTITY THEREAFTER. CURRENTLY WITH 39,252 MILES ON THE VEHICLE THE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION RATE IS ABOUT 1 QUART PER 2,500 MILES, WHICH SEEMS EXCESSIVE FOR AN ENGINE WITH LOW MILEAGE. THIS RATE EQUATES TO CONSUMPTION OF HALF OF THE ENTIRE CRANK CASE BETWEEN ENGINE OIL CHANGE CYCLES. IF NOT MONITORED AND FILLED THE ENGINE MAY BE DAMAGED DUE TO LOW ENGINE OIL QUANTITY AND PRESSURE. A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY IMPACT IS PRESENT IF THE OWNER IS NOT AWARE OF OIL CONSUMPTION AND THE ENGINE SEIZES. THE ENGINE IS THE HONDA SOHC VCM, 6-CYLINDER (V6), GASOLINE ENGINE. *TR
