Hello I went a week down 2 quarts of oil .. I only use mobile one and it was about 40 degrees ...did I do any damge . The car seem good.. Any opinions would be appreciated.

 

So you're leaking oil?

 

depends on the driving that was done. but not likely any damage was done

 

I am leaking or burning it...I live close to work real close lot of short trips...I am hoping the sythetic protected me ..the oil pressure light never came on and temp never rose..so I hope I am ok

 

2 quarts is a ton of oil however the same kind of thing happened on my buddy's integra and it still runs like a champ pushing 300+ h.p. on the stock block

 

I believe that as long as you have oil pressure (and you did), you're fine.

 

so you are leaking or burning that much in a week? THATS NOT good! id find out in a hurry whats wrong. where you park is there oil spots?

 

No Oil spots...no leaks no power loss no temp rise or oil light...I am taking it in but I can not figure out what the problem is. I hope using the synthetic oil protected me . I think if it was summer I would be crying now. How would I know if I did any damage. I mean what it the light for ..I know oil pressure but how much oil would you have to be down for it to come on? ..

 

well if you are burning it nothing you use will protect you any more. did you for get to add the missing 2 qts? if you arent leaking and you didnt forget to add enough then youare burning it, and 2 qts in a week is really BAD

 

the only time that happened to me was on my 95 accord...i cleaned out all the oil with the machine at the oil change place.....and after a lil while all the oil goes in the engine and u have to fill it back up

 

I was hoping because I used the good stuff I would be ok..I mean if I used regular oil and it was summer I would be all done but mobile 1 in the cold weather ..the oil pressure light never came on ..around corner or hills... what use is that light?

 

have the car lifted and look for any leaks. Also what color is the smoke from the exhaust.

 

normal white smoke .. I have heard of being down oil 1or 2 quarts and no damage. I hope because I had the synthetic oil film protected me. The commercials for oil drain it all out and run them.//so I figure I am ok.. ya think

 

Jack up the car and look by the oil pan. Check for leaks.

It's highly doubtful that the car could go from not burning oil to burning 2 quarts of oil in a week. It has to be a leak somewhere. Have it checked out.

 

it doesnt matter how much you are down! if you are burning it it already means SOMETHING is wrong, and there is some sort of damage or something! now if its just a leak or you forgot to put in enough, you should be fine. FIND OUT WHRER ITS GOING! is it a LEAK or is it BURNING it. if you are burning 2 qts a week get it checked out

 

already took it in,, Dealer said could of been seeping at the crush washer on drain screw...

 

didnt you notice oil spots where you park it?
