Engine oil consumption

What is your question?

Have a 2004 celica Its a great car but i have 35600 miles on it and its using up a quart and a half of oil in 15 days.... and the dealership keeps telling me that the engine for that car burns up a quart every 500 miles.. which does not seem right at all no car should use that much oil. What should i do or what could be causing this

That is ridicules. If they have changed the engine oil every 3000 miles or you can document frequent oil changes I would call Toyota customer service and see what they have to say. Overheating can cause an oil burning problem. A cylinder leakage test may show the root of your problem but at best major engine disassemble is required to solve the problem.

Thats what i figured but the dealership wont do anything unless it shows a prob with the 500 mile test and they have been telling me that it is normal for that engine to loose a quart every 600 miles mind u it is a 4 quart engine
