2011 Volvo S60 Oil Consumption
Hey guys, it's my first time posting here. I just bought a used 2011 Volvo S60 back in late December and I'm having a few issues. It's the T6 with awd obv and it has about 80k miles on it now but I've had to top off the oil a few times since I bought it. I thought that was weird so I reset the trip counter and actually measured it. I'm burning about 1 quart per every 600-700 miles or so. Definitely a problem there right? The car also feels like it's fluttering most of the time. Like little microscopic vibrations. Is this something I should be concerned about? I'm thinking about taking it in. Luckily I got it through a reputable Acura dealership nearby and have a solid 3 year/36,000 mi warranty that I opted for.

Also, side note: do all of these models trap rain in the doors for an unreasonable amount of time??? After a heavy rain it seems like even a full 24 hours after it has stopped, the doors are still full of water. Not just one, but all of them.

Yes, you should be concerned about burning a quart of oil per 600-700 miles. At that rate you'd never have to change your oil; It's doing it for you. Sorry for the sarcasm but you need to have that looked at. Sounds like you have some serious gremlins lurking. If indeed they are providing a solid 3 year/36k mi warranty, it's time to exercise it's coverage !

Hi Mitch, here's my horror story https://volvoforums.com/forum/volvo-...own-rod-92443/
Same problem you have. I had to replace the engine! No help from Volvo, even though I opened a case with corporate BEFORE it threw a rod. Good luck with yours.
