My Alto VXR 2004 has a problem that its engine oil is getting lesser fast in quantity.I am using Zic A as engine oil.local car mechanic says that its engine weak. he sys problem in gas kit and head.

Check to be sure you don't just have a leak somewhere.
If you are getting oil sheen on top of the coolant in your radiator, or if the oil is turning gray, it's a head gasket or cracked head. If you are getting blue smoke at idle, it is piston rings. Either way, it sounds like you have a predictably worn engine after 10 years of use.
