Default Losing Oil. Lost Two Quarts in 600 Miles . HELP HELP

What could cause my car (99 Civic Si B16A2) to lose oil like this? Theres no oil stain or no black or white smoke coming out my tail pipe. I have a full warranty on my ride . 100Gs but Im ready to turbocharge my car and this is just ******* everything up. My compression is all fucked up big big time . 110 125 150 109 . WTF is going on. I could not see any oil around my parking spot. So a leak is out of the question but in the morning it does throw smoke. I dont know what going on please help me.

Seems very strange. With rings you usually have smoke under acceleration. You mentioned your car was under warranty, make it the dealers problem

Try doing a wet and dry compression test. See if your compression goes up with the wet test.

Seems like you need new rings. If that's the case, take it to the dealer and let them handle it.

Just as he said above, make it the dealer's problem. I would just leave it with them to fix and they should give you a loaner car while the repair it. Mine burns oil BIG time. Sometimes you can see it really good then sometimes it's not that visible. But, I have to stop every half tank of gas to add a quart of oil. It sucks, but the jackass who had the car b4 me must of abused it! I keep hearing it's the rings that are shot on my motor. I really don't care since I am yanking the motor next month anyhow

Dood, if you have the extended warranty, without a doubt take it to Honda and have them check it out and repair it. Did you have any other mods besides the AEM CAI in the past? Also, what oil are you using, Mobil 1 synthetic? If so, try another oil. You might wanna put your stock airbox in before you take it to the dealer so they don't break your ***** and say the car "has been modified".. etc.. You know they can be real ******.. Take the car to Honda ASAP!!! Good luck..

hey Bro ... Your Rings are done!! I have a 2000 Civic Si and I just did a compresion test the other day cause I want to raise the boost to 7psi (right now its at 5psi). My car has 61K miles on it and its been boosted for the past 3 months.

These are my numbers ... 190 180 190 210

So im told our motor (B16A2) should have 190~210 lbs per sq. in

Take it to the dealer and let them fix it!! Put back all your stock stuff so they dont give you a hardtime.
