No , is the jeep smoking or dripping
Yes this is normal. Many 3.8L engines had the rings installed upside down. Also, the 3.8L is just known to be a burner starting around 60-80k miles.
Chrysler specs allow up to 1.5 quarts per 1000 miles! Can you believe that?
For me I switched to a slightly heavier oil. Living in Florida most oil change places like Jaffy Lube will put in 5W20.
I switched to 10W30 and it is much better. I can go 3000 miles and only need to add 1 quart.
I have 115,000 hard miles including window deep trips through the mud holes. So your mileage may vary ;)
Good luck, and have fun out there .
