Oil consumption

I have a 2002 Highlander 4x4 v6 with 104 000 km. I had it in for an oil change in January. After only driving 3000 km the oil was down over 3 L. I took it in to the dealer, they filled it up again and told me to watch it. It seemed fine until I took a trip (approx. 600 km). I checked it when I got home and it's down again. I dont see any leakage marks on the ground or on the underneath. Any ideas?
