Howdie,

First of all, I know that M103 engines do have some oil consumption problems. My car has been burning oil since about 60k at about 1qt/1k. Lately, it is worst at about every 600miles/qt. Visually, there is no oil under the car with minor seppage on from front of engine. My question is what should I do first? Go with new valve stem seal or valve guide or both. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated. Car runs flawlessly and would like to keep it for another 100k.
