Hello Guys,
I`m not very sure is this the correct place where i have to post/ask my question , but i hope it is
I`m the owner of a Honda Civic Type R ( FN2 , year 2010 ) and my question i related to Engine Oil
The problem is that for some reason my engine is eating oil very fast ..so in 1000km it takes up to 500ml so far , before you start to judge please also read below because i made some tests
Test 1 :
So with the oil at normal capacity I have decided to make 1000km without hinting vtec and with a maximum speed of 150km/h , just to see if it`s eating oil , the test was successful, after i have made the 1000km i have notice the oil lvl was 100% unchanged
Test 2 :
Driving more aggressive ..going in vtec , so i decide to make 1000km in the following way , forcing a bit the care let`s say ...without giving any red lines ( max torque was 6500 / 7000 rpm ) with a maximum speed of 210 km/h , switching from higher to inferior gear ( again repeat going above 7000 rpm ..maybe it was 2 or 3 times 7500 ..but not important ) so after i made the 1000km in this was i parked the car in garage and i went to bed , in morning i have checked the oil and i have notice i took 500ml
Other Info :
Oil leek - No , i`m not leaking oil it was the first thing which i have checked many times ..so this is not the reason
Shifts - Please notice ..i have never missed my gears ..... it is not my first car ...i`m used with sport gear box
Exhaust fumes - I have also recorded for a while ... there is no white smoke or black smoke ..regardless if i drive normal or aggressive ( so more or less this is good ) i have also a video , i hope it`s allowed to post

What oils i have used : I made the above test with Motul 300V Power 5W40
What i have used before Motul : Honda 0w20 Type 2.0 What i have used before Honda : Mile 1 0w40 Is the car stock? : yes it is stock ..but in august i will to Stage 1 Upgrade
Please guys land a hand here, i`m started to get frustrated ....and i don`t know what oil to use in my engine .. i have 68k millage
Can someone with more experience please advise me what oil to test ? I plant to change the oil since Motul is also getting eaten up ..
I hope this is the correct threat and also hope i will get some assistance since i don`t know what to do anymore ...
Thank you in advance and i wish you all a good day,
