Consumer Description

AT 124,000 MILES (4000 MILES AFTER THE WARRANTY RAN OUT), MY CAR STARTED BURNING ABOUT ONE QUART AFTER EACH 1000 MILES DRIVEN. I HAVE CHANGED MY OIL RELIGIOUSLY AFTER EVERY 3,000 - 5,000 MILES. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE CAR HAD BURNED MOST OF ITS OIL AT A 3,000 MILE OIL CHANGE. HE ALSO SAID THAT THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH A PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN WIDELY REPORTED ON THIS ENGINE.
