Description of the problem | The engine has been burning oil very quickly. We had an oil change and around 5,000 miles later, there was zero oil left in the car - the oil light came on. Then it was fine until the next oil change. Then less than 3,000 miles later, the same thing happened. Added 4 quarts of oil to it and about a month later, it was low again and the oil was very dark. |
