Sucks...I have had basically zero oil consumption since I did my rebuild in 2009 up until about 6 months ago and now I am burning about a 1qt every 2k miles. Likely the stem seals are toast again after almost 100k as a few of my plugs have a lot of carbon build up on them (had I known victor-reinz was trash 7 years ago I wouldn't have used it!)

I'll be doing that job again soon after I replace the tumbler flap on the intake manifold on my M272. Once that's done I plan to take some photos for cam wear at 180k with my cam that has NOT been replaced with the hardened version. Will be interesting to see what wear it has after using 15-40 diesel oil almost its entire life.
