Moldsmobile intrigue uses oil, approx 1-1 1/2 qts between oil changes. It doesnt leak (not a drop) and doesnt smoke at all. It has always used some oil between changes. Even when brand new it used almost 1/2 qt. Each time. There are no knocks or noises in the engine compartment and it truely runs great. The only issue is that I have to watch the oil all the time. ANY IDEAS WHAT TO CHECK?

If it always leaked 1/2 a quart, but now it only takes 1 quart more after 140,000. Its a bit high but not that bad.

Try adding some oil stop leak and see if that fixes it!
