What I have decided with my 200K oil consuming car
#21
I've browsed that thread before just too much information...I don't think any oil out there will save me 1 quart per 1000 miles...I don't want to waste my time trying new oil and researching oil when I can just pour more in in 3 minutes.
However, I was thinking to send some oil in for analysis about a year ago. Same even if I do a compression and leak down test, they all prove there is an oil consumption issue. I don't see the oil come out during oil changes I know there is an issue already. It's not a cheap fix, it has to be something internal in the engine that will cost $$$$$$$$$$$$$
Right now I need to bandaid fix this problem until I actually see a car I want to buy

Also, if you think gas prices need to come DOWN from the current pricing, I have bad news for you. US fuel pricing is about as low as it's been for over five years and we should enjoy the cheap gas prices while we can.

Yes and I know oil is pretty much at the bottom right now, I was joking because the ls460 has a v8
