2005 dodge caravan using oil
2005 grand caravan using 2 to 3 ouarts of oil in 3000 miles ! 3.8 v6 I finally found the source , The pcv valve is sucking oil right out of the valve cover and burning it . This motor has been doing this since 29,000 miles . I unhooked the pcv valve , and my oil burning has stopped . Called dodge , no updated valve cover or pcv valve , hope this helps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: 2005 dodge caravan using oil
I've read a PCV valve can do that but rarely read of someone having seen it happen. Thanks for the info.

PCV valve is stuck open.Replace it and the hoses but dont drive around for long without it.Unless you want to have other problems.
