Hi guys
I’m having issues with my d4d while traveling round oz. it is using what I would call excessive oil. I have added 1.5L oil over roughly 5000ks since last service. I am towing approx 1.6T camper. No oil leaks, doesn’t blow smoke from exhaust, no injector knocks. Last 3 services oil pick up screen was clean. It does have oil vapor when I remove the oil dipstick while engine is running at temp. Oil catch can is fitted and does catch quite a bit of oil. EGR disabled via custom dyno tune.
Previous owner had a reconditioned engine fitted which has done approx 20k now. The injectors were all brand new off the previous engine before it blew, so only approx 40k/2 years old.
Apart from this the motor runs perfectly. Smooth, quite and plenty of power.
Any my advise on where to start looking?
