I had a rather lengthy discussion with my dealership today about both of my Zs using oil. He told me that in late April or early May GM is going to be supplying a different set of rings for the LS1/LS6 engines for those that are using oil.
Good news is, GM is well aware of the problem...Bad news is they are going to have to tear into the guts of my engines. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif
The dealership said that those that are having problems, need to ducument document document. Be sure to have your service department do an "Oil Consumption Test"!!
When I had the oil changed in Sherylann's Z 3 weeks ago, I told the dealership I wanted them to document the fact that her car was using oil. When I talked to them tonight, they said they didn't know it was using oil. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif Thankfully, they have a reliable service department and they told me not to worry....If I'm having problems, they will take care of it. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif
