2015 VW Passat Limited Edition OIL Burning issue

Topic starter

My car is at 127k miles. It has started to burn about 1.5qt of oil in-between oil changes. Is there a way to minimize this or try anything out? The oil does get a bit dirty before the oil change time comes up too. Would love some insights or suggestion to try with this issue. Thank you for all the help.

One thing that can affect oil consumption is your positive crankcase ventilation, particularly the PCV valve. Try replacing that. Other than that, there's not much you can do - you could find out if its your rings or valve guides that are worn out with a wet/dry compression test, but repairing either of those is very expen$ive.
