My 04 Cavilier uses 4-5 qts of oil a week and I've had 5 shops look at it and no one has an answer withouit tearing the engine apart. There are no leaks, no smoke, no oil in raditor. Any idea where the oil is going

It is going out the exhaust on on the ground, it can't go anywhere else, check spark plugs for signs of white ash build up on the electrodes, this will indicate oil burning.
