Ive done a search and no one has posted results that I could find of people with similar issues of having to constantly add oil. So here is my story
at 2100 miles I did the first oil change and the level was at the bottom of the XXXX on the dipstick
at around 3500 miles I had to add 1qt
5000 miles level was at the bottom of the XXXX again and I did oil change #2 and filled to the top of XXXX, checked with engine cold
now I am at 6600 miles and it is just below the XXXX wit the engine cold. I added one qt and it’s at XXX 75%
I do notice about a 2 XX difference between hot and cold, is this normal? Are you supposed to check hot or cold?
I do have the ford racing catch can and there's barely ever any oil in there.
I feel like this is one of those things the dealer wont be able to trouble shoot, especially since I do my own oil changes.
Does anyone have advice, things to check, things to have the dealer check?
Plugs?
compression?
valves?
I use 5W-20 motorcraft full synthetic and have never seen a drip of oil on the floor nor does it smoke at all
