Help Alfa 166 oil consumption!!!

I read a lot about oil consumption in TS engines and I'm confused.
My question is... What is the usually oil consumption for 2.0 TS engine with Selenia 20K oil (alfa recommended)?

Anything between none and 600 ml / 1000 kms.........
'Religiously' check weekly ,is the only real practical suggestion.

Agree with Stori. I'm finding that I'm topping up with 500ml for every 100 miles travelled.

Re: Alfa 166 oil consumption!!!

i think it just depends - there's no set figure as my twinnie (even with 130+k miles) uses practically zero oil, even using millers 5w40 fully synth. As stori says, just keep checking regularly
