Hello!
I am a newbie here and on cars in general so bear with me. I have had this 05 RSX Type S for about 4 months now. It has 181,xxx kms now. After a week of purchasing it, noticed that valve cover gasket was leaking oil, so replaced it along with the o rings on spark plugs. I purchased a Fel Pro gasket, in the process of removing the rubber o rings, I broke the original ones. Looking at the Fel Pro ones, there's extra pieces on it. Confused, I just put the bigger one I think. I changed my oil too while at it, I recently used Penzoil Synthetic 5w-30, but changed it to a dino one, same brand and viscosity on my oil change.
So, thinking the oil loss would be fixed, I was wrong. After about 2000 kms, I lost about a quart. Searching here in the forums, I can only do the PCV Valve change, as suggested by other members. And no, the oil loss is still there. Constistent 1qt/2000kms.
Also, there are no drips under or something and I had my buddy followed my and floored it and no blue smoke or something so I don't know if its burning it or leaking it. I am also checking oil first thing in the morning so no change I have read it wrong. What could this be? Pretty new on cars so don't know much and a little bit of help will be appreciated!
Also changed the spark plugs, which I found out it has a white powdery stuff, suggesting I am running lean.
