Engine Oil pressure? Is this normal on D - idle?

I can make pictures. It just hose coming from pcv side valve to catch can in then from out port of catch can to intake(left back side of throttle body)

Look how installed catch can:

I'm not sure what the difference in cans are the video is a little hard to follow.

Here are the instructions for the Mighty Mouse can for the Gen 5

You might want to try the LS2 mild diagram and see if it makes a difference.

I posted on a recent post somewhere the known issue of rings being stuck in the lands causing oil consumption. Not enough to cause smoking. Of course there can be other things as well. I'd just drive it until it breaks then rebuild

Can it will be fixed with oil additives?

As I've said before, we are all just guessing. I still recommend at least a compression test and better yet a leak down test.

[ReVeNanTSS]

Ye you right. Need compression test. What i noticed last 400km that oil getting normal than before. I yurned off afm by tune. Also restricted catch can air little bit. Hmm

How about putting the PCV system back/remove catch can & see if you still use oil? If it seems to have started after it was installed reverse what you did.

Ok I can check it

.. Makes sense to start there.

Oil additives no. But there is a cleaning procedure for the cylinders which you let sit for a couple hours to try and attempt to free them.
Aluminum Block - Oil Getting Past Piston Rings - Free Up Piston Rings and Install AFM Shield on All Non-Hybrid Models
Note: If vehicle is built outside of this breakpoint, it should already be equipped with this AFM shield or the pan does not have an AFM valve (LFA before July 7, 2009).

To correct this condition, install an AFM shield, perform the piston cleaning procedure as described in this document and install a new oil pan gasket per the procedure outlined in this document. Monitor oil consumption after this repair to ensure oil consumption has improved to acceptable levels.
If this repair does not correct the condition, it may be necessary to replace all of the piston assemblies (piston and rings) with new parts. Refer to SI for repair procedure.
Important: It is critical in this cleaning process that the engine/fuel injector cleaner remain in the cylinders for a minimum of 2.5 hours to fully clean the components. The cleaner solution must be removed before a maximum of three hours.

1. Remove the spark plugs and ensure that none of the pistons are at top dead center (TDC).
2. Clean the pistons by putting 118-147 ml (4-5 oz) of Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner, GM P/N 88861803 (in Canada, use 88861804), in each cylinder. Allow the material to soak for at least 2.5-3.0 hours, but no more than three hours and then remove the cleaner. A suggested method of removing the cleaner is cranking the engine over. Make sure to unplug the ignition coils and fuel injector before cranking the engine over. Also make sure that the painted surfaces are covered so no damage is done.

You already have the updated cam cover and don't have to worry about the oil pan afm.

Oo i can do this. Start with putting back oem pcv hose. After this procedure. I hope it will help. If no help then rebuild
