The Isuzu service bulletin regarding excessive oil consumption (> 1qt per
1000 miles) is service bulletin # IB00-01-5002. As I said on the phone, if
you ever get to a point where you feel oil consumption is an issue, Isuzu
will consider up to 1qt per 1000 miles to be "within spec". If your
consumption gets worse than that, they will have the the dealership perform
monitored consumption tests (per the service bulletin above) and if the oil
consumption is then measured worse than 1 qt per 1000 miles, Isuzu is
obligated to replace the motor. Having this service bulletin number at your
disposal is valuable because it shows your dealership that you know what is
going on. Tuck it away and hope you never have to use it.
