SC Bypass causing Oil burning
SC Bypass causing Oil burning
I had recently taken my car to the dealer ship Bc my car is burning oil. Its not smoking on start up it will however on acceleration. The compression test came back good. They had told me my supercharger bypass valve is causing the burning of oil and they told me its dumping out of the PCV due to too much pressure bc it isnt opening up? I need help figuring out whats causing my car to burn oil .
How much oil is it burning? How many quarts came out at last change?
inspect your throttle body - is it covered in oil?
Bad piston rings or bad valve stem seals could also be the cause.

IF the valve seals and or guides and or rings where bad wouldn't that show up in the compression test? It seems like Im burning a half a qt a week i do drive over a hour a day. I will check the throttle body today and record my results. @ lawless what do you mean bypass it? Would a catch Can help with this?
also it is barely even smoking out the exhaust it is very minimal

That's quite a bit of oil to be burning.
Look up a sc bypass mod.
A catch can would help keep oil out of the intake tract. But it WILL NOT ACTUALLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
They said they had to replace the Bypass to further investigate. also would the excess pressure be whats causing my dip stick to pop out between drives? what are and where can i find bypass mods?
Don't even worry about the bypass because it's not your problem. You need to have someone with a brain do a leak down on the car
when they told my me the bypass was causing that much oil consumption i was thinking the same thing makes me wonder if they half ass'ed the compression and leak down test not to mention they are $ 90 labor
Compression tests won't tell us everything.
Get a leak down done.
And who knows if the compression numbers are even right since they're dicking you already
