Dear Members,
Recently purchased a pre-owned 99? GS 300. The vehicle has 43,000 miles and is in excellent condition now that (via the warrantee) the radio was replaced due to a bad LED and full front-end break job due to a warped caliper.
Maybe I?m being picky but noticed that between 5M oil changes, I?m consuming oil. Other minor symptoms (slight engine vibration when stopped and in drive) might suggest that there is a vacuum leak and oil is seeping into the pistons.
Would really appreciate any feedback or history on oil consumption.
Thanks,
Ron

I've done over 130,000 miles in my GS and it's never used s drop of oil - sounds like a problem mate - I'd get it looked at while it's under warranty

I agree with Rodders. My GS has been to the moon and back and dosen't use any oil at all

I have had three GS's in the last four years none of them used any oil.

My 1996 P at 117K miles has never used a drop of oil from new.
