i am afraid,the engine is gradually depreciating and beside the normal servicing period should be 3month depending on the maker of the engine oil

Park d car overnight in a dry surface and then,either move it a little or bend down to check if their is oil droppings on d ground which would suggest a leakage.
Is Ur car 'smoking',esp blue smoke?That would suggest ur car is burning a mixture of fuel and oil wc signifies a weak engine.
Then some cars a known to short oil wtout any fault(I think Camry 2007-2009 or so) though not as heavily as yours.
Wait small,our ogas @ d top go soon show to give more probable causes.

If there is no external leak then there is internal leak.You are losing the oil tru the combustion chamber cos there is already tear and wear .The wrong oil (20W50) that u are using has caused its damage to the engine .#stoptheuseof20w50.

The oil is too heavy for the car. You should change the oil to the recommended oil asap

What is funny is that those people and the mechanic will not be their to contribute kobo for purchase of new people engine ,hence is it your responsibility to aspire to make the necessary research about what is good for your engine.
