Does the Nissan Almera burn oil?

Filed under: fault

The question

Hi, I have a 2007 Nissan Almera 1.5-litre petrol. I just wanted to enquire whether it was unusual for these Almeras to have high engine oil consumption.

Many thanks

Hi May,

In general these engines are very robust and don't use much oil. Of course if any engine isn't serviced then its reliability will suffer. The Almera's can have timing chain problems in that case. If you're getting high oil consumption then you really should bring to a mechanic to ascertain why.

Hope that helps
