[QUOTE="norcalcobra, post: 15758724, member: 43920"] Update: Service writer suggested an oil level study, basically they perform oil change and I monitor level. Then i would return the car when the oil level drops. He also said that Ford has published data that says cars use any where from 3/4 to 1 quart per 900-1200 miles. At first I was like okay. Then I pointed out tar like build up on the inside of the coolant reservoir, they suggested dirt got into the system. I insisted that it appears to be a hydrocarbon. I asked how this would enter a sealed pressurized system. I asked them to test the coolant system, 150$. I just want to be insured that i did my due diligence before putting the car back on the road. I know that i might of been able to test coolant system myself with a simple kit but I am betting Ford would not give any validity to my findings. [/QUOTE]
