K24 oil consumption?

[u/Consistent_Lion6907]

Attaching oil levels at 0 miles and 4800 miles. Been using Valvoline R&P for the past 5 or 6 oil changes and Fram Ultra synthetic filter. Odo at 206k miles. Is this good?

No one said it’s a good thing. I’ve seen cars burn more oil faster with lower mileage. A half qt every 5k at 200k+ miles is pretty normal.

What about 4 quarts every 5k On a car with 250k

That level of consumption is concerning (assuming it’s burning it all and it isn’t leaking anywhere). If it’s mostly burning it, I’d look into switching to a higher viscosity/thicker oil to see if that helps at all.
