yeah most turbo cars burn oil... i burn about quart every month or so... doesn't take much to fill it up.... is it a quart from the bottom dot to the top dot??? cuz when i filled it up, it only took like 1/3 a quart or so

My other corolla uses a quart of oil (.9464 liters) in about two days. The problem is cylinder two doesn't fire and cylinder one rarely fires with any enthusiasm due to its 90 psi compression. They take forever to heat up while the rings get beat all to hell and so much oil leaks past that it actually started to seep oil through the exhaust manifold gasket. Too many attempts at four-wheel burnouts.

if the return isnt foling right, oil could leak past the seals in the turbo

hmm, well my oil return is pointing back instead of down, that could have something to do with it
