seems like either the piston rings or head gasket leaking.Low fuel consumption is due to the compression loss.
should I replace the rings then?

I drive a M.sport 2008 since 2010 and I'm really in love with the car. Not using as my daily but using it in weekends for long travels. Comfort is not 100% i must say. but gentle enough for long trips.
Off road capability is also pretty good.
Highly recommend the vehicle.

Then it seems general engine wear with this millage (sometimes millage may be bit higher than 230k if previous owners have tampered it).
15 * 14 = 210
1L for 200 km is bit higher consumption so you need an engine overhaul I suppose.
BTW, Which grade oil you are using?
15W-40 by Mobil I am using.
I was thinking the same. Asking for an overhaul then it must be neh?
A guy once told me, engine oil may mixed with fuel. This can be happened?
also I have noticed fuel consumption is low from recently. it does around 8-10 kmpl in colombo.
One more thing, Once I start the car in the morning it wont go even i accelerate. Have to keep the car for around 5 minutes to warm up in parking gear. But in low gears and revers gear this never happens.

Hello All,
I daily drive a corolla 121 (YOM - 2000) with 230k km on clock. Recently I'm experiencing a loss of engine oil (very small quantity). I drive this approx 15km daily. Every two weeks now i have to refill the engine oil by approx 1L. No leakage on the floor or no black smoke is producing. What may be the issue on this?
