Yesterday I noticed the oil was low on my 09 Z. I'm at 52,000+ km, the warranty ran out at 48. This morning I'm going to go to Walmart or Canadian Tire to top it up.

To check for consumption, I'll be checking it every 1000km for the next 10K, which should take 2-3 months.

How much is too much? If its actually consuming? Had this car for over 2 years with no issues, hopefully it's just short from the recent oil change.

Now, worst come to worst, if it's really consuming oil, what are my options? Do I really have to replace the whole engine, or can it be solved with an internal rebuild?
