Megane 1.6 - Same as MK2 RSI Engine HELP!



  RenaultSport 172.
hey guys...
I hope the mods wont mind me posting this in here as its the same engine found in the mk2 RSI?

Basically, its my moms car, and its been burning ALOT of oil...As in at least a Ltr a week...
Now theyres no smoke at all out the rear etc, and no signs of anything worn...
I went and inspected it yesterday, and plug chambers 1/2&4 were full of oil, covering the coil pack too...drowning the plugs...

What would this be?
After numerous research i found alot of possibilities; Rocker Cover Gasket?...Faulty Oil Pump? ....Stem Valve Seals? ....Rings?

Any help would be great!
Thanks In Advance

sounds like either the rocker cover, or the breather box is leaking. That's a lot for a leak though!! rocker cover doesn't have a gasket, it's done with liquid gasket, and it's a cambelt off job to fix it which needs special timing tools (practically the same job as a 172)
