Just bought 99 accord, using oil very quickly, please help!
I just bought a 1999 accord lx coupe, stick shift, 122,000 miles, one owner, regular service check ups, no problems on the carfax lookup. Everything in great condition, regular oil changes and everything, had one done 1000 miles ago. On the way home from getting it i stop to get a quart of oil cause it was low. One quart in and it still doesnt read, 2 in, no reading, 3 in and its full. Car only holds 4.5 quarts. Possibly jiffy lube where it had its last oil change forgot to fill it up all the way?
Anyways, so i drive it home (300 miles) and i check it when i get home, the reading is at halfway, so i put half a qaurt in and its full.
Drive it 40 miles in town (minimal speeding) and now thismorning its at the bottom of the reader.
My brother and dad are both technicians and there is no smoke at ALL coming from the tailpipe, no smell, and there is absolutely no leaking, my brother put it on a car lift at work.
The air filter is clean, and the car runs quietly and at a low tempurature.
Where could this oil be going? Please help!
