Using Some Oil
Since new, my '05 LLY has used oil when on extended trips pulling my 9K travel trailer. Not a lot, but maybe a quart in 1500 miles. When not towing, oil consumption was zero. Recently however, (with 107K) it's started using oil when not pulling the trailer. I just checked it and it's just touching the end of the dipstick with 4000 miles on the oil change. (2 quarts low ?) There is zero evidence of any leaks or drips.(new concrete driveway). The pvc system was eliminated about 30K ago and the egr is blocked.The valve covers are vented to the atmosphere and you can't even get a drop on a tissue on the end of the hoses. No oil smoke under any conditions. I started out using Delo 400 and about 3 oil changes ago switched to Mobil Delvac, with no change in oil useage. I change oil and filter every 5000 miles, fuel filter every 10,000 miles.
I'm not in panic mode, but searching for ideas as to what would be causing the oil useage.
