You don't understand...This was a catastrophic failure of a part...It probably wasn't simple excessive oil usage that you could keep track of . Same thing happened to Lou Fusz's car here.
A seal went or something that literally pumped the entire oil supply through the engine in a real short period of time (minutes in Lou's case if I'm not mistaken).

Nissan replaced his engine as well. Stuff happens.
