Just wanted to share my experience with oil consumption and what i've done to fix it
Turns out it was probably clogged oil control rings but did not have to tear the engine down. Seems to keep burning oil I recently picked up a 07 ms3 that has kinda been a shit. I stopped having my oil changed at the dealership and have not had any problems with oil consumption since then
At 130k miles, i switched to castrol edge, high mileage syn oil, and still no. I didn't have burning oil.i had a bad gas smell in the oil that cause me to swich to mobil 1 synthetic at 500 miles.this worries me.

Just checked my records, vvt actuator and timing chain replacement cost me $1,176.51 at the dealer in 2018. That's because mazda's fix is to just add oil or do a free oil change each time the light comes on My dealership did not lie to me and show me all the up to date posted bulletins on the 2.0 and 2.5 engine oil. Bought this car about a month ago
