Default 2003 Accord EX 2.4 Using oil

My 03 started using oil (not obviously burning it) at about 136K. No leaks. Could it be the PCV? Not changed or cleaned to my knowledge. Suggestions? Thanks...

Well the pcv is a normal wear item and should be changed....I hate to tell anyone to spend money but when you are talking about a wear item that is part of regular maintenance

If nothing else it is a start and part of regular maintenance so why not.

Next, how many cyl's is the car?

Its a 4 banger. It started using more oil abruptly so it seems to point towards something like the pcv.
