also too not for anyone to worry these engines do run hot so untill that "engine gunk" has settled in it seems like your gonna lose alot of oil by it burning off. i have 23k on my 08 i check my oil every month and before longer drives, there is no consumption. ( i also hit vtec on every on-ramp and engine brake on every off ramp and i drive the highway every day)
