Oil consumption bad o-rings -2011-2012

Oil consumption bad o-rings -2011-2012
I have two Acura MDX's 2011 and 2012 - both have the Oil burning up and it loses at least a quart every 1000 miles. I have been checking the oil every 1000 miles and have been adding a quart or two when needed. I now want to tell you that I have been using Lucas Oil Stabilizer in the 2011 and after the first 1000 miles no oil needs to be added. I was amazed! I even double-checked it and it didn't need any extra oil added. I will check again after another 1000 miles and update this Thread. I also had some hesitation is the engine when I would hit the gas after driving for a while and the gas mileage was horrible 12.1 mpg according to the system. I added Lucas fuel stabilizer and after three fill ups the engine has never been running better. I bought a gallon of the stuff and after every fill up I add about 5 oz. and I'm telling you the car has never been running better and the MPG went all the up to 15.6 MPG!!!!! I could not believe it. I don't know how accurate the MPG is on the dash, but it is much better. I use the Lucas fuel stabilizer after every fill up now. And NO, I don't work for Lucas and have no affiliation to any Lucas's products. I just did a lot of research and I'm telling you this stuff works. Like I said I will update after the next 1000 miles and we will see where we are at.

I had an used 11 MDX Adv I purchased in 2014 with 30,000 miles and just sold this year with 155,000 miles. I switched to full syn oil with OEM oil filter at my first oil change soon after purchase and later to +75,000 miles Mobil 1 full syn high mileage formula. My oil consumption has held steady at 1.5 qts per 9000 mile oil change interval since purchase. No oil additive, usually add +/- 1/2 qt around the 50% oil life mark, and stuck to M.I.D. schedule for oil changes.

Drove another 1000 miles and no oil missing! Usually by now I have added at least two quarts, so the Lucas Oil Stabilizer is doing it's job. and still getting great gas mileage with Lucas Fuel Stabilizer. I will update again in another 1000 miles.

I just bought Lucas Power steering stop leak in hopes it will fix a small leak on the driver side rack (just posted on this a few days ago). I will report progress.

Hit 3,000 miles and has to add 2 quarts... and at 4000 had to add another quart... so I still need to add oil, but at a much lower rate... I was adding 1 to 2 quarts every 1000 miles.... Lucas is working great. I will update again when I did a full oil change at 5000. Thanks.

I assume you are back to square one, consuming a quart or more of oil every 1000 miles. Those additives do not work as a long time solution. As a matter of fact these additives can clog the piston rings even more .

Still no issues after all these months later.
Sorry, I have been crazy busy looking for a new job. I am still adding, but no where near as much and using Lucas Oil treatment (Every oil change) and Lucas Gas treatment on every Fill up. Car has never, ever run better. No engine issues, no noises, no leaks. This stuff is great. 154,000 miles and engine is great. If something happens, I will update again.
