I've had a couple of Astra company cars.
The 1.7 DTi was a snail.
Didn't burn much, but didn't go either.

The 2.0 DTi was a two-stroke diesel.
Over the regular oil change interval, I added almost as much oil as was in it.
That was considered OK, as others burned even more oil.
In the beginning, we got 1L oil bottles to fill up. Later on, 5L bottles.

Dunno if GM ever got that oil issue sorted.
