Dirty gritty drained oil when I did the oil change today

My engine burned oil for the first several oil changes. I have 17k on the car now and it Burns an insignificant amount.

Same here very early on. Only have 2600 mi and already virtually no consumption at all.

My '04's torque is uniform throughout the whole band. I don't think that's normal.
