That does seem a little excessive but I don't know much about the ecoboost motors.I lose about half a quart every 5,000 miles. I keep finding it in the catch can lol
catch can is an aftermarket mod. you shouldnt have it stock.what and where is the "catch can"?
I see about the same consumption, but I am only just passing 7k on the factory oil (semi-syn blend). The motor craft oil has a some what high NOAC value so boil off is expected (aka higher consumption rate).By the OPs account thats 2QTS every oil change, that is very excessive. One quart per Oil change is a little on the high side as well, but with the issues with the PCV system we have noted its not surprising but thats alot of oil to burn through if not just leaking somewhere in 2500 miles.
I lose maybe 3 to 6 oz of oil in my catch can maybe every 3800 miles. I have never been down 1 full quart between oil changes.
