Oil Consumption

You’re asking for the people’s elbow

I find it very odd that people go so long without checking their oil. When my ordered Raptor gets to me, I will be checking it over very closely. Part of that inspection will be checking fluid levels. With a Screw’s 36 gallon gas tank, it certainly isn’t overkill to check fluid levels at each fill up. What else are you going to do while it fills, take a nap?

Checking fluids every 5-600 miles is exactly that. Overkill

Wouldn't you like some of these guys running heavy equipment for you

It is getting burned off. I wonder if this truck also has the oil pan leak too?

Does it get confusing for you to post under different names on the same thread?

Lol. I just checked my oil level because it had been 8000 miles since last oil change. It was still at full. Plan on changing again soon. Maybe 10k miles

17 raptor and oil consumption was 1/4 quart at 4500 miles

looks like this thread is a few months old but same thing here... happened right about 3900 miles - Low oil pressure warning which triggered limp mode, pulled over to check everything out. Turned off the truck turned it back on - truck acted like nothing even happen , then the check engine light came one and received misfire errors through the FordPass app.

Anytime I would accelerate over 4500RPM this same cycle would occur.

Truck has since been in the dealership for 6 weeks now while the do a complete tear down and inspection of the motor as directed by Ford.

I'm at 17,900 and I've not lost a drop of oil. Checked it for the first time in about 4k miles after a hot day at the rally track and it is as full as when I got it changed at 14k.

I had my 2018 Raptor Valve Cover Gaskets replaced last week. Ford has a bulletin out to replace valve cover gaskets because of oil consumpttion. The gasket gets folded over and oil goes directly into engine and is burnt in combustion chamber. Absolutley no exterior oil leaks or wet exhaust. It was covered on warranty, but what happens down the road?
