I just checked my oil today, and it was low, no problem, i added some more, but i do have a question. Where is it going?? I'm not burning any, i have absolutly no leaks, and i took my radiator cap off to check for oil in my coolant, and my coolant is perfect. I'm not burning any coolant either, my levels for everything else are really good. I am running a tad rich, but thats it. Is my turbo just pushing that much oil, i doubt that, it has no shaft play, i mean, the regular amount, but still, i have not felt a turbo with as little play as mine.
 
How often/amount do you have to add? Its normal to loose oil through blow by. Are you smoking at all?
