tgdi using 5.6l? is the sump really that big eh?

Peug and VW 1.6/1.8T use around 4.7L jer. Usually its the BMW and Merc using alot of oil

i guess its normal then, cos 1.6 na just need 3.8l of engine oil. turbocharge is another level no wonder my pomen recommended to use oil sump extender for 4g93t. to store 6 liters of eo. maybe better for heat dissipation

Is walnut blasting necessary for NA? If do, how many kms per intervals?

port injected no need, if direct then have to check the valve dirty or not.

GG, and they played with the maintenance schedule by placing the timing belt at 120k km
rather than 100k to lower the perceived costs

the truth is I think need to change just like what u said to they just want lower the perceived costs.

just like preve and other proton cars, upon reach 100k km after timing belt change mostly will need to change the water pump and tensioner bearing, cos this two parts is wear and tear parts. some waterpump can holds up to 200k km. but some only lol.
