So i filled it with 5 quarts of synthetic and a new filter about 2-3k miles ago. I checked the oil a month ago and i noticed the last bar was empty on so i filled it up wiht half a quart of oil and it brough it back up to full. Checked it today and noticed that it was short 1 bar again as well. I checked where the car is always praked and no oil leaks what soever and the cap is on tight as well as the filter as there is no oil in the engine bay.

So what shoul di do, any dieas??

quit complaining, change the oil and be glad it's not a 2.4L

Well if its not external it is internal. So either your valve guides are shot, your piston rings are shot, or your PCV system is operating incorrectly.

If you check the oil IMMEDIATELY after stopping, there will still be some oil left hanging in the engine. After a time, it will all drain back into the crankcase, giving you a better idea on how much you truly have.
