Hi, I replaced the CCV in my car, but I am still experiencing oil consumption. There is
no white or blue smoke coming out form the exhaust and no over heating. The
engine work in good health no leaks. I want to know what is the problem? Some
one told me that I should replace the valve cover gasket, but no smoke from
exhaust to consider that the problem from valve cover gasket. Help please!

Check your PCV system. Remove the oil cap and place a piece of paper over the oil fill hole with engine running. There should be a slight vacuum. If no vacuum then replace the oil separator box (PCV box).
