<strong>I'd also like to know why the 3.5 does use so much oil. Regardless of what Isuzu says, this isn't normal - AFAIK no other vehicle brand does this.

BMW, Mercedes or VW, for example. You will be
surprised, especially by BMW's figures.

Remember that Isuzu makes trucks and their engines
are more loaded.

Mine uses very minor amount of oil, and the
consumption is getting less.
