Vectra 2.2 C consumption of oil

[Alex_from_UA]

Greetings to all happy owners OPEL Vectra C. There is a problem of consumption of oil ( 0,1-0,2 L a 1000 km, traffic model: 60 km/h-city, 100 km/h -outside of city ) on the engine 2.2 (2003). Somebody knows the decision of this problem?
Thanks a lot.

0,1-0,2L is totally normal.

BUT This is a new car! (odometer value is about 20000 km)
I drive quietly, without high speeds.... I don't understand... Is it normally:
0,2*15000 (service interval) = 3L?!!!
Why a consumption of oil for Vectra 2004 is 0 (i have got a lot examples) but for Vectra 2003 (end of year) is 3L a 15000? (in some cases - more then 5-6L!!!!)

There is a few decision (from rumors):
1)Replacement a valve cover. (There is not a correct circulation of the fulfilled gases, superfluous pressure of oil is created... Thus oil passes through rings);
2)Replacement rings and oil-demountable caps (I don't know its name correctly in English)

Please, somebody prompt me what I should do!
Thanks.

when u are the first driver of the beginning of the car's life, it could be that the motor must be "driven in", it means that after ca. 15000kilometers it shouldn't anymore consum so much oil.. but when your machine has more then this 15thousend kilometers it can be a damage at the 2nd thing u wrote (as i think.. but i'm no motor engineer)

but maybe u are driving the wrong oil.. maybe an oilchange can help .. i would suggest 5W40 or something like this
