There were a few ( not all ) early VEA engines 2015 - 2016 which had carbon build up behind the oil control rings , a few engines had new modified pistons. This did not cause catastrophic Engine failures ,, what is your experience with catastrophic engine failures???

No the oil pressure will remain constant that's the point of the variable capacity oil pump ... pumps more when hot and less when cold depending on load , rpm and oil temperature ..
Hello Clan,
I have a V60 2014 D4 VEA, that is consuming some oil.
0,5 liters per 2500 km at least.
Some people is complaining about the dipstick, some about the engine rings, but is quite strange from my understanding.
My technician says that this consumption is not normal, and now we are looking for a removal of the total oil from the sump and check if the total quantity it there or not.
Do you think that can be this issue with the pistons?

Many thanks,
