*update*
since the engine is under warrent (barely) I called jasper. Asked them what i should do in the case my rings are worn. I mentioned the fact that my pcv was routing alot of oil possibly from excesive crankcase pressure. He told me that the 7m's have a common issue with some sort of baffle on the valve covers getting clogged that commonly causes excesive oil consumption along with alot of oil being pushed through the pcv.
Anyone ever heard of this? I would be fucking thrilled if it was some dumb shit like this. More over i wouldnt be at all surprised. And if it is indeed the issue, then this should be mentioned in a sticky as a common 7m issue. For now the most i can do is get my compression and leak down tested asap and get back to japser before they say to hell with me.
