With VCMTUNER I have minimal oil level changes every 5,000 miles. My engine started burning a noticable amount oil at about 115,000 miles. On my personal vehicle, I saw oil consumption about 1 qt for every 2500 miles. If excessive oil consumption is a new problem for your vehicle, the sooner you apply VCMTUNER the less wear and damage to your engine. Questions?
