hi, all sifus here. i'm facing some problems with my car, hope any sifus can give some opinions.

I'm a LMSS 03' owner. My car experienced serious "eating engine oil" to the extend where the time i reach 3k km, the engine oil can even reach the stick(stick that check how much engine oil). Then i have to add half bottle of engine oil(around 2liter) to my car.

When i send my car to mechanics, most of them asked 2 same questions.
1) Do u see any engine oil on the floor?
2) Do u see white smoke from your exhaust?
And my answer is:
1) Cant see any engine oil on floor.
2) Dont see white smoke from exhaust.
Then they also duno where to check. One of the mechanic said he saw some oil in my exhaust there so he predict the engine oil is leak in that way. And i've asked 2 mechanics what is the solution. They give me 2 solutions also which are "TOP" and Overhault. They said if piston still in good condition then can only do "TOP". But then the price of overhault is so much different between their price. One mechanic said RM900 including changing RAK piston, rim. Another said RM1800 including changing piston,rim but i din ask what brand. What a WOW, 2x difference.

So i dont know what to do. Any sifu can give any opinions? Or is there any sifus here has a workshop?

Thank you in advanced.

bro, thanks for your advice.

One of the machenic's price full overhaul(not TOP) is rm900. is 900 reasonable or isit too cheap? this mechanic's TOP price is around rm500 as what u said. but the rm1800 mechanic is my regular mechanic that whenever my car has prob/change engine oil i send to him. but his price is too much for me...

Bro. Notoriez, a proper overhaul cost rm2-3k that much? i thought a full overhaul costs me around 1k or 1k+ max. Or may b i misunedrstand u, may i ask what are they going to change if i'm going for a proper overhaul compare to the normal full overhaul?

bro yewwing, i search through your post till Nov 08' still couldn't find ur receipt...haha...nvm...at least i know that full overhaul cost at least 1.5k+.

may i ask any sifu here owns a workshop or any sifus is a mechanic or any workshop that is reliable for overhaul?

Do u mind to give me the mechanic u are mentioning? thank you.
