I have a 2011 Equinox, 2.4L engine and it is using oil. I took to the dealer where I purchased and they said I needed an oil consumption test. After I completed this, they said it was using oil but they needed to do this test twice, when I took it back after 6,000 miles, it was down 2 quarts which was about the same as the first test. Now the dealer is saying this is not as bad as others, not sure replacing the pistons will improve the situation. They are suppose to call me to discuss.
