2015 1le burning oil....

Hey guys, picked up a 2015 1le new about a year ago. Had the oil changed at 1700 miles, and have had to put almost 2 quarts in in the past 5000 miles. I'm getting ready to take it in this week, but has anyone else had this problem ? Thanks

The very same thing has happened to me.
I guess I am not the only one.

Never discount a faulty Valley Cover.

Search Valley Cover.

I replaced mine when I did the custom cam for good measure.

I noted an improvement in "oil consumption".

For the moment no.
I am about to approach the 8K mark and it hasn't happened yet. I've logged every single time when I drive the car, as of today I have not added a single drop of oil.
