Have you looked under vehicle for the leak? Is it smoking any at all? Does your radiator show signs of having oil in it?

I check all the time but nothing has shown up. The cover under the Engine is clean .

It's either burning it (smoke from exhaust) leaking it or loosing it into your coolant(radiator--blown head gasket.). Slide you a large piece of cardboard on the ground under the engine. This will help you find any hidden drip points. Park over it with car and let it set a couple hours. Check cardboard for oil spots. Also look under middle of car by the doors. Is there an oily residue on the under side of the body.

Might even be the oil switch. That will blow a full sump load of oil out in no time.

you need to check the oil separator. It usually does this kind of issues. its a pancake shaped valve on the intake.
