HaHa Winter in Houston!!! You are changing needlessly in that environment.

AOS OK? that would be my main point of checking if you have no leaks.

***BMW tells owners it's normal for some of its engines to burn a quart of oil in less than a thousand miles. In a tip sheet to fleet-vehicle operators, GM says normal consumption "can be in the range of one quart within 2,000 miles on a properly driven and maintained vehicle."***
