Consumer Description

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THE CAR HAS BEEN USING OIL LIKE CRAZY. I REPLACE ALL 5 QTS OF OIL AT LEAST 1.5 TIMES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT OTHER THAN AN ENGINE REBUILD I AM PRETTY MUCH OUT OF LUCK. THE CAR NOW HAS APPOX 185K MILES. THE USE OF OIL HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE AROUND 75K. I HAVE DONE A LITTLE RESEARCH AND SAW A SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT BY THE TIME IT WAS ISSUED MY CAR WAS OUTSIDE OF THE MILEAGE RANGE IT COVERED.
