Oil Consumption on 03 3.0
I'm at 2200 miles and have already had to add 2 quarts of oil. I've done a search, and I haven't seen consumption levels that high.
Also, the light that pops up in the diplay is Oil (yellow, priority 2) but with the word "sensor" next to it. I've checked the manual and the indicator in there says the light should be "Oil min" not "Oil Sensor." I confirmed that it was low by checking the oil manually.
Any thoughts?

Update
I feel like a total idiot. It turns out that she was only down a quart, but the stupid dipstick on the car is so hard to read that I couldn't tell. I had to put it up to a fluorescent shop light to see that the second quart actually overfilled the oil. With her being just one quart down, I'm ok, I'm not as worried as I was.
Thanks for your responses!
