Burning oil

[Scott shepherd]

My oil level was at correct level about a month ago just checked it now and it’s very low seems to have used a lot of oil , it’s done about 700 miles in last 4 week but hard miles , any suggestions ?? Car runs and starts fine and there doesn’t seem to be a leak

any smoke?

[Scott shepherd]

No smoke at all , when first start up there’s condensation /steam but no smoke ? Can’t get my head around it ? I am going to top up tomorrow what’s best oil ? And will keep eye on it

Any oil leaks on the rocker covers?

[Scott shepherd]

No checked dosnt seem to be , I have toped it up so will keep my eye on it , what would be the symptoms of the turbo oil seals where on way out ?? Smoke ? And oil usage ?

[Scoobyghost]

You'd certainly see blue smoke of it was turbo oil seals.

Can you see under the rocker covers? Especially under drivers side near the turbo uppipe. Its a hot spot so usually goes brittle.

Run your hand under the cover when cool to give it a good check.

how much is it actualy using?

Take your intercooler off and see if it's been sucking up through the breathers , also how old is the oil ?
