I have just gone through 3 litres of oil in less than a month.... i got the car last month, gave it a full service, new oem filter and castrol 5w30 full syn oil...
was having a race to the permitted road speed limit with a passat there the other day and it wouldnt vtec poperly it was going in and out of vtec... and the LAST thing that was coming to my mind was it being oil because i only changed the oil less than 4 weeks ago and levels were fine. but low and behold, pulled into a car park and there wasnt a drop in it....
it has been a small bit smokey in vtec but nothing major like.. and there is 100% no leaks as i always park it on dry ground and check underneath when i drive off and i have had it up on a ramp about 4 times replacing things like bushes and drop links gaiters etc.
is this something i should be really worried about?
