The car runs fantastic with no other issues.
Switch to full synthetic like M1 EP.
Swtiching to full synthetic will do nothing to address the consumption. 3000 per quart is not an issue and is typical for the engine.
Well, I think switching to synthetic would be better overall, regardless of consumption. But, M1 EP might have lower NOACK which could help.
