If you were burning off oil slowly I would think you would see consistently high oil temps.

Your theories are on point, I must admit I went through that same checklist myself and am baffled. Clean exhaust, no visible leak (park it in the same spot everyday), no out of the ordinary oil notifications.

You guys should have seen the techs hovering over my car. One looked at me and said "Welp, we gotta find where the oil is."
