This is a car not a plane that requires a checklist before every action.

Conclusion.! This car "consumes" way too much oil between regular services.!! What is the solution?
I don't know. But my rate of usage is 1 quart per 16,000 miles. Don't know why it is low but it has been like that on two 4.4l twin turbo V8s from BMW now.

I have been using factory oil too.

I thought it might be benefit of living in a warm climate, but JMH lives in New Hampshire and also has equally low usage.
