Default Low Oil Indicator Coming On Too Frequently ...
First came on at 2,000 miles, then again about 500 miles later. Have taken to checking the oil every 500 miles or so and am noticing the need to add oil more frequently than I think would be normal. Have been replacing with Valvoline 5W30. Anticipate scheduling 5,000 checkup in a week or so.

Any ideas as to why '01 225 TTC would be performing in this manner?

Default Is that acceptable, mixing the Valvoline with the factory installed oil? My lead tech said if I
found the oil down during the first 5K miles to bring it in for an early oil change.

I told service to check it last time, I guess I will have to insist they check it.
