I've posted a couple of times about this but I thought it was due to a visible leak on the rear crank shaft seal. After getting this fixed, my Punto (90K miles) is still going through oil at a reasonable rate (probably 0.5 - 1l per 500-1000 miles).
No visible sign of an oil leak, other than a little oil around No 1 cylinder. Could be from the cam cover gasket or a slightly seeping head gasket. Coolant levels seem OK.
Car runs well enough and still has the same mpg and performance as 40k miles ago, just sounds a little rougher. More smoke out of the exhaust than my other Punto on start up, especially if left unused for a couple of days.
Any suggestions on how to determine where the fault lies?

Tim
