After 1.2K, I had the oil changed and for the last 950 miles, I've been driving the car normally as I would with no reservations. Unfortunately, I am noticing oil consumption again. I told the tech about this and he added a BG additive. Hopefully, the oil consumption will decrease and then stablize between the next few oil changes. __________________ My Rides: '09 Nissan 370Z Touring/Sport Package - AAM CBE '02 Suzuki SV650S - Delkevic Slip-On
