    ok so I have an issue with my oil. just changed my oil at 116000 miles and now its at 116900 and I have about 1-1 1/2 quarts gone. I started at the 5th bubble (farthest to the end of the dipstick) when I put new oil in at 116000. now im at the second bubble ( closer to the end of the dipstick). any ideas on what is going on with my oil? pcv valve was changed when I bought the car last year early fall.
