For the last 6000 miles I have been experiencing oil consumption at a rate that wasn't present before. It comes out to roughly 2.5 quarts every 2k miles and has thrown a low oil pressure light twice (never did it before in the 140k miles I've driven).
Also, around the 6000 miles ago I started getting a squeal/whistle on throttle tip-in when accelerating and when the DSG rev matches during downshifts. This squeal/whistle would only occur after driving an extended amount of time and if I shut the engine off and turned it back on, the squeal/whistle would go away. When the car squeals/whistles, there is almost no boost and once the noise suddenly stops...the boost comes on like a switch. I do have an DV+ kit and there is not a drop of oil near it or the valve. Also, no codes are generated and the car runs/idles smoothly.
I do notice an excessive amount of smoke when accelerating quickly and no obvious oil leaks in the engine bay or under my car (I park in the same spot at work everyday). That many quarts of lost oil would definitely leave a stain/trail somewhere.
My question is, can a failing PCV cause this squeal/whistle and the oil consumption I've been experiencing?
