  • Oil consumption at idle?

    Allrighty guys, non fbody issue but I need some help. This is on my 2002 Impreza WRX. The car has started smoking when it is warm and I let it idle for 2 minutes or so. Doesn't smoke when its cold, doesn't smoke driving down the road, at WOT, high rpm decel or anything like that. So that kind of eliminates valve seals( I think) and rings. The only thing I don't know about valve seals is it might not smoke when cold due to being a horizontally opposed engine. Anyone ever had similar symptoms before? I'm thinking maybe pcv or turbo, but I could be completely wrong. Please HELP!
