Hey everyone. Just curious, how much oil does your CX-5 burn? I'm on the highway a lot due to work and my car seems to burn a lot of oil. My car loses just over half a quart every 1,000 miles. I know that's not too bad, but it seems to be slowly burning more oil as time goes on, as it was at a quarter quart per 1,000 miles when I first bought the car several months ago. Just to be safe, I'm going to have a mechanic search for leaks as there's only so many places I can see under the car.

 

Is your CX-5 turbo?

 

As Grim said type of engine also miles and year would help.
My 2020 NA with 37,000 miles doesn't burn any oil at all.

 

2021 CX-5 Turbo with 42k miles. Consumes between 1/4 to 1/3 of a quart oil every 1,000 miles. Bought new, consumption hasn't changed over time.
My car is within the VIN# range for the known exhaust valve seal issue.

 

We still need to know the engine type.

​​​​​​My 2022 2.5L burns none at all between 5k oil changes at 30,000 miles.

My 2020 2.0T on its 2nd engine burns about 1/2 quart over 5000 miles. Nothing major.
