    High Oil Consumption

    I get it, that's the only thing that's kept me sane through this whole process.. ya, they replaced the cam phaser, and now it's running the way it should've all along.. these cars are extremely fast.. I've been driving it since I got it with the traction on. And now I'm getting more comfortable...

    My new motor did the long crank when it was installed.. it was a bad cam sensor, hahaha... new motor with a bad cam sensor. Once they replaced the sensor it has fired up like it should... I love my car, I think I suffer from beaten wife syndrome, but it has definitely been wearing on me..

    So far the motor is very strong. When I brought it in after break in for an oil change, they said it didnt lose a drop. I have about 1000 miles on it now with regular driving on it. I have yet to check the oil. But I will be on my next fill up... I'm very curios

    I'm sorry, but you lost me, so what happened to your first engine? You said it had no oil consumption issues with 2500 miles on it. Did it blow? And good luck with your new one.

    Break in period of a new engine. My dealer suggested 1000 miles.

    Only thing I was told, was to keep it under 4000 or so rpm and bring it back in a 1000 miles. And of course if something wasnt right, to come back.

    I'm 600 miles into the break in period on my new engine. I'm crossing my fingers hoping I have a good one now.
