Does anyone know if Shell has reformulated their oil recently?
CJ-4/SM is the last ratings on the jugs I have here.

With the amount of oil your losing, try changing to Delo and see if it makes any difference. In past post on this site others have seen high oil consumption with one brand over the other and they noticed immediate improvement when they made the change. This is not to claim that one brand is better than the other, it just seems that some engines have a preference for one brand or the other. I use the Rotella T in my truck.
