Yep; in moderate weather I'd keep an extra quart or two in my tiny trunk.



It just didn't sound right when he said that oil consumption increases dramatically around 65,000 miles. I mean, why would it?



The oil pressure light started flickering last month. At first I misunderstood the light and thought it was for the oil level, so I got an early oil change, but the light kept flickering from time to time so I finally checked the manual and searched here and realized it was the pressure. I got it to the shop immediately. They hoped it was just the sensor, but discovered it was the gaskets.
Umm... definitely get a used oil analysis. You may have engine damage.
