A common issue with our fx45 is oil consumption and leaking valve cover gaskets.

So if you're finding that oil is dissapearing between changes and there is no oil stains where you park, good chance that's what you're dealing with.

Just make sure you're keeping your oil topped up and you should be just fine. But, you need to make sure you keep it topped up. Bad things happen when you run out of liquid dinosaur lube. Aka oil.

Also, maybe find a better mechanic that is willing to explain what's happening to you. If he can't explain it, fuck him or her, find one that will. I know who I'd want working on my vehicles.
