The used vehicle I'm looking at has a similiar vin #, but not quite. So, how can I tell if its part of the oil consumption TSB issue?

Thanks for helping,

HKK

 

is it an +05 6MT ?

 

Yes, Vin # JNKCV54E15M423167, 6 quarts of oil at recent oil change. Thanks for helping.

 

The TSB will clearly state which model years are affected.

 

Anyone?

 

if im not mistaking it only holds 5 quarts of oil

 

here is the TSB

4.7!

 

The 05-07 6MT coupes and 05-06 sedans have the rev-up motor which are the motors that seem to have the biggest issues with OC. The 5ATs not so much. If the car you are looking at falls into this category it's a possibility you could have the issue. However, not all rev-up motors get it, seems to be a crapshoot.
