Since my 1st Oil change I have discovered an Oil problem, usually 2-3 weeks after I need to add at least 2Qts of Oil. I have to be constantly be attentative not to run out of oil. There is no apparent visual oil leak and ive been told that it evaporates or that these type of model cars are known for this, nevertheless the problem is still there.... I did take my car to the dealership during the warrantee coverage and other businesses in which they were not able to Identify any problem nor any codes to reference it. Please help...Thanks

How many miles are you driving in these 2-3 weeks? Normal consumption is about 1 qt for 1000 miles based on manufacture specs.
