Re: 2005 V6 SRX Oil Consumption

Another update on my 05 SRX that sucks up oil. The dealer kept it for a little over 2 weeks and replaced the rings and valve stems and other things. As for the cost it was covered under warranty. I think they did some sort of cleaning to the engine as well cuz the engine put off a nasty smell for a day or two after the repair. (the service guy told me it could smell till the chemical burn off)

It probably have driven about 1k since the repair. Not sure on the oil level right now but my GAS MPG has improved by a few MPG. Not sure what that is about but it works for me.
