2014 Accord 2.4 Oil Consumption

Topic starter

I have a 2014 4 cylinder accord with the 6 speed manual. It currently has 96000 miles. I have had the car for a year and have recently noticed that the oil is at the minimum level. I changed the oil about 2500 Miles ago and did not have any trouble after my oil was changed by Honda at about 88000 miles. I have heard that the PCV valve may be a fix but does anyone have any advice?

Try replacing the PCV valve. It shouldn't cost much. After a while, they will start letting a little oil pass by them and get sucked in the intake. If that doesn't fix it, then you probably have a more major issue such as worn piston rings or valve seals.

It can be the PCV valve. Scotty has a video on that (I think it is a CRV).

Most likely PCV valve

Odd story ...

A coworker has a 2012 Accord.  She has it serviced at the dealer, who noticed oil loss at about 100k miles. 

The final tally after several checks was:  Losing 1 quart per 1,000 miles.  Likely piston rings (PVC change didn't help).

So, her gallant husband bought her a new Jeep, and started driving the Accord himself. 

But a few months later, the Accord stopped burning oil (he was checking and adding about every 1k mile).

Outside of his driving mostly highway vs his wife's city driving, the dealership had no explanation.
