Assuming you don’t have an obvious oil leak, which at that rate it would be, the best you can do is try to switch to Valvoline Restore and Protect oil. It’s getting rave reviews for its ability to clean piston rings on bobistheoilguy.
Just use valvoline restore and protect and you’re safe to go! My elantra is a 2021 with 43k miles and I haven’t had even one issue with the engine so far. I bought it with 41k miles and there’s nothing like the peace of mind I sense knowing I can rely on it to take me where I need to go. Idk if it’s the oil or what, but I’m impressed.
Valvaline Restore & protect is the best oil to use when getting up there in miles. It slowly cleans the engine. It’s all i run in all my vehicles now. My Clarity has 133k miles with no issues.
I use 5w-30 Valvoline Restore & Protect, I’m from the SoCal low desert region. Never had an issue, changed every 5,000 miles (nearly once a months cause I commute so much for work).
Started using restore and protect a few months and 4k miles ago. No leaks either.
First oil change at 15,000 kms. Went for Ravenol, it’s made in Germany and seemed like a superior choice.
I run Valvoline Restore and Protect. It may be overkill, but I change it every 4-5,000 miles.
If you wanna try and solve the oil burning though, try using either Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 engine oil at your next oil change (and use it for top ups as well) or Valvoline Maxlife 5w-30. If you find your burning oil while driving, it’s probably gummed up piston rings in which case use the Restore and Protect- it’ll take a bit (4 consecutive oil changes) but it’s the only off the shelf oil available that will completely clean the rings and stop the burning.
Currently on valvoline and it does seem good, not sure if it's better than the elf in the short run but long run could tell different results.
Valvoline is pure trash. Hardly any additives between any other lines of oil compared to competing brands.
