CR-V 2.0 i-VTEC oil consumption

Original Poster

Hello, I have an oil consumption problem in my car. I showed it to a few mechanics and they recommended an engine rebuild. I'd like to get the opinions of the mechanics here and learn market prices. Your advice is valuable to me. Thanks in advance.

My car has LPG, it had an old system when I got it, I replaced the whole setup on it. When you drive it hard, it burns a bit more oil. But the real problem was that the previous owner of the car didn't know the thermostat was faulty. Because the thermostat wasn't working properly, the car was constantly running hotter than it should. I noticed it when I bought it and fixed the issue right away. The gasket isn't burnt, but I think the engine might be worn because of the previous owner.

Yes, I think something like that happened. The service centers I went to quoted prices in the 80-100 thousand range. I'll show it to a few more mechanics. Let's hope for the best now.
