If I understand correctly, you are saying the currently installed engine has excessive oil consumption and only has 22,000 miles on it?
Or did you mean to say that the previous engine was replaced for excessive oil consumption?

He said the engine consumed a lot of oil before replacement.

Yeah, 22k "w/ excessive oil consumption" EDIT: I just read your response above that it was on the original engine. Us in the North American market aren't exactly use to shorter drives like SK so perhaps that's the issue. Can you get Valvoline Restore & Protect over there? How much oil was added to this interval? Overall the results are not bad so the engine seems to be doing ok under the situation.
