Re: 2003 kia rio

based on that limited info only, it's up to you

to spend for a rebuild/ replacement engine

or

keep pouring a quart/2 of oil per week...

how many miles?
use a compression tester to see if the cylinders are still "healthy"???

that's weird that you don't see smoke out the tailpipe & you said there's no oil leak in the engine bay...
