Yes, using the wrong type of engine oil can significantly impact oil consumption in a Honda City. If the oil is too thin o r too thick for the engine’s needs, it may burn off faster o r fail to provide adequate lubrication. For instance, using an oil that doesn’t meet the manufacturer’s recommended viscosity o r switching between synthetic and mineral oils can contribute to higher oil consumption. To avoid this, owners should always use the oil grade specified in the owner’s manual to ensure proper lubrication and minimize excessive oil burning.
