The consumption was worse before the last oil change. It used to be about a quart every 800 miles. This last oil change I used Valvoline Max life 5W20 and a bottle of Avblend. Looks like the consumption after 800 miles is going to be about 1/3 of a quart?
I wonder if we will see this mod from the factory as a polution control device? I am about to put one on my car to see how much it collects.
Not likely since the average consumer wouldn't empty it regularly.
