    Time to switch from Valvoline Restore and Protect back to high mileage oil?

    Thanks- I'll watch closely for a few thousand, and go from there. My granddaughter drives the car, so it's harder to track, but I'll have a chat with her. It's the apparent increase that concerns me.

    No obvious sign of either- not Thanks, I'll monitor it closely after my next oil change (tomorrow), and address it with my mechanic. I doubt the PCV valve has been touched, ever.

    Time to switch from Valvoline Restore and Protect back to high mileage oil?

    We have a 2010 Impreza (144,000 miles, 2010) driven by a teen. It hasn't been using significant oil, but I've had to add about 2 1/2-3 quarts since the last oil change (3000 mi ago). I've already done four changes with Valvoline Restore and Protect, and am wondering if this could have anything...
