Video of my cars oil burning issue
I promised some of you I would post a vid of my car burning oil and here it is. Keep in mind, I just pulled in the driveway after getting off of work so the car was idling for about 3 minutes. Long enough for me to go inside to grab my camera, hit record and press the gas pedal. That happens everytime I stop then take off again.

The smoke is bluish in color, just can't tell because of the lack of lighting. And it smells just like burnt oil. Thats an unmistakable smell that you can't get confused with anything else.

Ouch, probably the rings are fried, but I have no idea why. I have never seen a 4.6L with ANY kind of cylinder wear or piston ring issues. Have you checked the compression? I suppose that it could be sucking it in somewhere, PCV maybe.

even if it was from the pcv system, still means the rings are fried. Id do a compression test, im betting you have low compression, probebly loading up the crank case instead of cylinders and basically pouring oil into your motor through the intake.

Run a good compression check, and I bet you will find it is OK. I think it is the valve seals or a blocked drain down hole and the oil might be accumulating instead of draining back down to the oil pan. Good luck.

I watched your related video of the New Exhaust after the first one. When you fired it up there was a puff of smoke at first,then it went away, which is evident of bad valve seals. Oil is draining past the valves into the combustion chamber.
