Icon2 2002 4 cyl Honda Accord EX burning oil

Hi,
I have a 2002 honda accord 4 cyl EX with ~107K miles on it. I have noticed that i need an oil change every 1000 to 1500 miles.

Also if I drive for a long distance nonstop e.g. 300-500 mile trip it pretty much consumes all the oil...

Is this normal, if not, what could be worng ?

I also notice that it has higher vibrations on idel doesnt happen all the time but sometimes it is very noticeable.

Thanks

Thats not normal at all... I got 248K and it doesnt do that. It can be many things:
Your rings are bad, your valve seals.... Did you buy it used from somebody?

If your car is consuming that much oil you will be seeing it come out the tailpipe.
