yea i've noticed that too.... I"m doing an oil change next week. But 2 days ago i checked my oil and it was really low... and I noticed the valves a little louder than usual, meaning they weren't lubricated enough, so i through another Qt. oil to hold me off till next week.

going Royal Purple.

 

I used mobil 1 synthetic and had it filled up close to the top. I have 6k miles on the oil and yesterday I went out and checked it and there was hardly any oil. No leaks at all. I checked EVERYWHERE. I put valvoline synthetic in now and next oil change will switch back to a blend or regular oil. I might have the problem checked out because all I know is it is not good.
