carbon buildup
I got on it tonight at 2,300 miles from a dead stop.
I looked in my rear view mirror and swore I saw some smoke at the intersection I left.
Going to check the oil level next time out. See what she is consuming.
I'm not a catch canner... but I do remember reading about doing some WOT would clean some of that stuff off.

When I checked it at 850 miles, car was parked in same spot. It was more of a clear oil and down 1 dot (1/4 qt).
Oil level was very full. Up to the 1st twist on the stick. Car is pointed slightly downhill by a small amount. Now it is more of the yellow/golden brown color.

I parked the car the reverse way. The oil level is high. It's past the full mark up to the first twist.
Dealership must have added oil after changing camshaft actuator.
