High oil consumption with 2.4T engine V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Frank on  Tue May 27 00:27 CST 2003 [RELATED]

If it's not leaking ALOT, that's very high oil consumption for any engine and you probably see smoke billowing out the exhaust on accel too. If it's burning, your rings are NG and/or there's piston/cyl wall damage (a labor extensive job). Bad valve guide seals (or worn guides) won't cause that much oil consumption.
