Hello and welcome along, as above, but also check for the leak if your losing oil, or is it burning it, more like a leak tbh.

I did my oil and filter there is no oil leaks I think the last last owner just neglected her the oil was low so I put new oil and a new filter 10/40 oil and oil filter was from euro parts I also added some oil stop leak just in in case its leaking oil but I could not see any oil and its not dripping on my drive way . I also put in the oil some oil additive and now she is running like a dream. I have also just found the water leak its coming from the water pump so I have just got a new water pump and two of the belts iam just waiting for the 3rd one to come from japan then that will most of the service parts sorted for some time . Ps thanks for the the input guys I hope I will be of some help to you some time all you have to do is ask
