Please don't keep your vehicle make, model and engine a secret.I haven't used a dexos labeled oil in a couple years. When I use any oil labeled dexos in the weight on my oil cap, my car consumed 1 qt every 750 miles. The car had 35k miles on it when we bought it, and went thru oil like nobody's business. Gm sent us a notice to bring the car into a dealer, and they said they were not going to do anything about it. Unless I wanted to pay to have it re-ringed. So I have been using 10/40 wt oil to slow down the consumption, and that works. It's way out of warranty , but now it only has 88k miles on it. I'll never own another GM car again.,,
If you allow me a guess, I'd say you are speaking of the 2012-2017 Equinox with 2.4 engine.
Every major manufacturer has at least one mass produced engine that drinks oil. So when shopping next time, do a lengthy Google Search for history on what vehicle interests you most.
