My car has consumed oil since I bought it with 2500 miles on it. Went on oil consumption watch with dealer and they ended up replacing PCV (checked plugs & said they were all ok), but the consumption rate continues to be high (1 qt per 700-900 miles), so it's going back into the dealer for further investigation.
My question is: has anyone had a recent motor issue, and did Ford replace the entire motor/block/heads or simply replace the suspect part?
I hate the idea of having them crack the motor/head open, but don't think they will have much choice, given how much oil this car is using. I'm hoping there are still Boss crate motors....and they simply swap it out.
What is strange is there is no noticeable smoke from the tail pipe on start up, idle or even when pushing it (according to my uncle who followed behind me on a good road trip)
