  1. Car excessively burning oil?

    Iā€™ll try and take a pic of the itemized list. It was the entire engine assembly. Pretty sure you keep the same ECU. Iā€™d revert back to stock, itā€™s a bitch but you donā€™t want them to try and find a reason to void your warranty.

    I had my engine replaced around 7K on the ODO, Iā€™m sitting around 20K now. I was adding one quart of oil every 850-900 miles. I drive the car in sport and manual about 90% of the time.
