Yeah. So this happened too...
Had a 2009 Hoonda Accord. It had been really good to me until recently. Racked up over 160,00 mikes and other than regular fluid changes and brakes the only work I ever did was a power steering pump.
Over the past few months it started consuming oil at an alarming rate. It made noise one morning and when I checked the oil it was 3 quarts low. Yikes! Topped it off. Shortly thereafter I changed the oil and at 2700 miles it got noisy again. Checked and it was 2 1/2 quarts low. I looked at the recently changed waste oil and there was only 3 quarts from when I drained it. Odd thing here is it was not leaking a drop that I could find. And I looked everywhere. Also no black smoke. But it had to be burning it. No other signs. Either way I decided it was time to part with her. I came across a good deal on remaining 2016s at a dealer in Fort Worth so I pulled the trigger on this ATS... This is not your Dad's Caddy! 4 cylinder turbo that puts out 272 hp and 295 ft/lb torque. Lots of extra goodies too. So far I'm loving her. Wanted to avoid another black vehicle but it looks so good when clean. I'm a sucker for shiny objects. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
