Losing oil in my Lexus GS 350
4 months ago I went for my oil change after 3000 mi. My low engine oil light was on. Mechanic said I had no oil in my car. He put in 6qts and told me to take it to the dealer. I did and they had me drive for a 1000 mi and bring back. This went on for 4 months and 4000 mi before they said they had diagnosed the problem. They said that I did not have a consumption problem. They said I had a bad engine oil sensor. I work everyday so I decided I would get a new sensor on a holiday off. a couple weeks after that I checked my oil a lo and behold there was no oil in my car. Has anyone experienced this problem

I think the manual states up to 1 qt/1k oil consumption is normal. That should leave about 2 quarts of oil left, lower mark of the dipstick. That is enough to trigger an low oil pressure light. How many miles do you have on your car?
