[QUOTE="Race Red Boss, post: 15880196, member: 162573"] Suggest you find another dealer to connect with and at least ask that the consumption issue get documented....in case it gets worse so it can be covered under the drive train warranty. Doubt your consumption problem will get better on its own. Seems ludicrous to me that the car is considered within spec at that rate of consumption. A consequence of the design (flat plane crank)? But.....it doesn't seem like a lot of owners are having this issue (outside of leaking oil filter and/or oil hose connections), so how can that be? Another thought: purchase an oil catch can to help alleviate some of that oil getting into your intake. Doubt it's where most of the oil is being consumed, but will help keep your intake a little less oily and having oil burned during combustion. BTW, I too was concerned about getting the motor replaced on my Boss, but it went very well with no side affects/problems afterwards. [/QUOTE]
