Corolla ve 2000 has always used alot of oil. Keep it topped off. Dealer says I need a new engine. Am out of state and had it checked with a Toyota dealer. Normally do not use a dealership. My mechanic installed a rebuilt catalytic converter several months ago. What could the problem be.I was told my engine was oil starved.

The check engine light get it read and comeback with the code/s. As for the oil-could be a leak or an oil pressure problem.
