My son's 2007 MCS (67k) is guxxlinhg oil - a quart every 200-300 miles. There is no visible oil leak; no loss of power and no blue smoke.

My trusty Compression tester does not fit this vehicle so I await delivery of a compression tester and leak down tester - probably tomorrow.

In the meantime I have pulled the plugs - I think I have attached photos of them?? They do not look like pugs from a major oil burner - perhaps I am wrong.

I'd really like some other opinions on this. Oh yeah, and I inspected two large orifices on the driver side of the turbo. There was a very small drop of oil - half the size of a dime - i think in from of the impeller. I could be mistaken as to which orifice. Again - did not seem enough to account for the oil loss.

Anyway - first step prior to compression and leak down is to see if anyone else has a better eye on the photos I tried to attach to this posting - thanks!
