Default 2003 Oil Victim

Kay i think im burning oil, drove around 1000miles and lost a quart already
in my last oil changes ive been losing 2.5Q's between the changes
i recently changed to motul 8100 5w-30, maybe i should switch back to Mobil1?
everything was fine before i switched to motul -_-

Sometimes changing oil on car with high mileage (not sure how many you have) will mess things up depending on the differences between the viscosities of the oil, I would switch back and see if it get s better.
