Engine Burning Oil Problems of Porsche Cayman

In January of 2007 I bought a 2006 Porsche Caymann s form paul miller Porsche in parsippany n. J. In 7\08\2010 the car began consuming oil at an alarming rate and I made an appointment with ray catina Porsche in edison n. J. Invoice#pocs45415. After their diagnosis they determined that the car used 200ml. In 475mi. , the car at the time had 17,393mi on the odometer, they said it was within specs. And I considered it part of the break in period. At 22000 mi I was experiencing an oil consumption rate of 1qt. Per 300 mi. Also their consumption test and what I?m experiencing are different. It went from 1qt {946ml. }every 450-500 miles to 1qt every 250-300mi. I was resetting the trip odometer every time the car needed a quart of oil, the last time I reset the odometer before I brought it the ray catina this month was 278mi. When I brought it in the first time in 2010 it was a consumption rate of 1qt per 500mi. {that?s what I was experiencing} then they said it was normal. They currently have the car and it was determined that the motor was tearing itself apart from the inside and needs to be replaced, my point is, if this 'normal' situation is left unnoticed. This can lead to oil starvation and eventually catastrophic engine failure. This can lead to loss of power steering and may dump the 8 plus quarts of oil on the road. I was fortunate enough to find and almost force Porsche to fix this potentially deadly situation before it got to that stage.

The Porsche engine did not have proper oiling due to a lack of proper oil return design which causes the bearings to prematurely wear and the rod bolts to fail in these engines. . Read more...
