    VW Golf using oil

    Volkswagen Volkswagen Advice Volkswagen Golf Volkswagen Golf Advice Volkswagen Golf 2003
    My daughter's 2003 VW Golf is using excessive oil. It has only travelled 103,000 km. Is there a problem with this particular model?

    VW engines use oil, but that's not necessarily a problem. It depends on how much it's using, and while you say it's using an excessive amount of oil, you don't say how much. I would do an actual check to determine the amount of oil it is using, which will give you a good guide as to whether it is excessive or not.
