Just recently I have noticed that blue smoke coming out of my exhaust pipes and I just had my car service with an oil change and tire rotation. The car only has 75,000 miles and I drive it normal on a daily basis.

It has in past during take off or at low speeds of 35 mph ribbed up the engine and made a popping sound while I was driving like it wasn't getting the fuel intake but I don't know if that has anything to do with the "blue smoke" issue at hand. From my understanding its caused by consumption of oil but is there any addictives or oil treatments recommended?

I was wondering if you had any suggestions to what I should be paying attention or looking over on the vehicle or if I should be driving the vehicle at this point?

Thanks for your time!

You can do a compression test to see if it might have worn engine parts. They do have oil treatment products that can reduce the amount of visible smoke, Risolone engine restorer is a good one.
