At 150k mi my '01 Aero SW still eats about 1 quart between 2 oil changes (6k mi).
I've tried the more viscous 10w40 instead of 5w without any appreciable improvement - except less smoke at startup in wintertime.
At the Mitsu CHRA replacement things improved - less smoke and minor oil consumption - ; today, 50k mi later, oil consumption is back, along with bluish smoke at startup - despite new valve seals and head gasket works done in between.
PS no oil leakage beneath neither heavy seepage from valve cover/chain tensioner/oil pan.
I think it's something related to age/design of our engines.
