engine eating up alot of oil
hye guys, i need 7thgeners help
i change oil every 3k. and when i did my last oil change, i only got back about 1 1/2 quartz of used oil. I usually get around 3 1/4 quartz.
so a sudden jump from 3 1/4 TO 1 1/2 quartz of used oil....is a big difference.
how come my engine all of the sudden ate up so much oil.
HELP PLZ

well, my engine light came on for the last 3k before i did the oil change yesterday....code came out w/ (p0240) blown catalyst converter. didnt think much about engine burning oil.
and before this oil change, i have been getting 3 1/4 - 3 1/2 of used oil so thats why didnt think much of it
the burning just appearred when i did my oil change....and huge jump of oil lost.
and there ISN'T any blue/white/black smoke coming out anywhere.
im checking my oil now, and see if it keeps burning up oil.
i might think is a fried piston ring
