Car excessively burning oil?

Useless video. Stuff that has been covered on the forums and Facebook. I thought It was going to be something new and etc

Just chiming in to add my name to the list of 2021's that is showing low oil. I'm at ~3700 miles. I've called and left a message with my service advisor.

My car is showing low oil as of yesterday. I own a 21 with around 12k miles and only 2k miles since my last oil change.

They fuked up :/
So, 2020 with 2port seems fine as for now?

Have an earlier 2021- tunable. Have added 1.5 quarts or so in 6000 miles.
first oil change at 2500
But i also track 3/4 a month and as my skill creeps up I am running her harder and harder. Long track days, so i kind of expect some consumption. I go through almost 2 full tanks of gas per day.

Dunno if i have the issue or not? Will probably get the thing built and stroked to 3.2 if it becomes a problem and or Toyota is not help.

I think you definitely don't have the issue. If you're tracking it that hard and only need 1.5qt in 6K miles... you're golden. Heck, probably have ~15% of that amount coating your charge pipe (or in the catch can if you use one).

Many people are burning that much with just regular driving in fewer miles - at least if the posts on this forum are any indication.

what is the date when yours was manufactured? My door jam says 6/20. Not sure if I’m considered early or late?

Getting an idea of date of manufactured is a good idea. That might provide info to how widespread the issue is.

I’m 6/20. Ecu is month or two earlier. Ecu was confirmed by a reputable shop

Oh sweet baby jesus let me be in the same club as you in regards to oil consumption lol

I'm at about half after 2500 miles since the last oil change. Seems about twice as fast as the recommended 10k. Should I have the dealer take a look or keep an eye on it?

Personally I would let the dealer know...with so many people having issues it's probably best to at least make the dealer aware of oil consumption...

2021 5318 miles on original oil and I’m low. Already had an appointment for an oil change in a week but going to get my dealership to document this.
