|  Oil consumption Dan, I had my engine replaced at 9,500 miles. Prior to replacement, the "check oil at next refueling" warning had appeared at least four times. Today, at 16,500 miles, the warning reappeared for the first time since the engine replacement. Would you consider this normal? Obviously, it is a huge improvement; once in 7,000 miles as opposed to 4 in 9000 miles. Thanks for your feedback. |

 | Yeah that sounds fine to me. If you check it again using the cluster you might find its actually OK that warning can be a little premature
