I drive 2000+ km's a month.. but it's still a pretty hefty oil consumption.
Havent checked compression on the engine..should get me one of those testers one day. The thing I'm afraid of is that when the valve seals go bad, it's also likely that the valve guides will be worn. In which case the life expectancy of new seals might not be very long.

FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC!
