My car was tested and qualified for an engine internal rebuild due to excessive engine oil consumption. It's been a year and the parts still have not been delivered to the dealer. Meanwhile i have to fill up the oil 3+ times in-between every oil change which is costing me the equivalent of an additional oil change for every oil change (approximately $30 extra every oil change).
