Yes, a faulty exhaust gas (EG) valve can contribute to high oil consumption in an engine. If the valve is not sealing properly, it may allow oil to enter the combustion chamber, leading to increased oil burn-off. Additionally, an improperly functioning valve can disrupt the engine's efficiency, exacerbating oil consumption issues. Regular maintenance and timely repairs are essential to prevent such problems.
