Oil Consumption?
Hello my fellow 6.2L owners.
I recently purchased a 2011 f350 with the 6.2L. After i brought it home i did an oil and filter change. Now after approximatley 1500km since the oil change it seems to have used 3/4 of a quart of oil.
After doing a little reading i decided to change the PCV Valve. im still waiting to see if this will resolve my issue. Is there anything else i should check to remedy this problem? I haven't noticed any blue smoke out the tail pipe.
Thanks

on my 6.2L at 150,000 miles . it uses some oil doing city driving...no smoke. like a quart in 5,000 miles.
but no oil on trips....
just did a 1,800 miles trip.. with 1,500 pounds in truck bed AND 9,000 in loaded trailer.
and used ZERO oil. or any fluids...
engine has NEVER been opened up.
