well im not really sure whats going on but im noticing more oil burning recently... I few weeks ago when i started it, it puffed out a blue cloud and performance has dropped recently, lower mpgs and not as much power. last oil change I was filled perfectly to just above center on the dipstick and now it has barely enough to dampen the very tip of the stick only 3000 miles later... what wrong with my baby?! :cry:

could be anything. rings worn, pcv valve, valve seals, or any combo of those.
