08' Yaris HB burning oil

Hello Yaris World Community,

In the last three months, my 08' Yaris Hatchback has burned oil almost completely dry. Only when it's near the very end will the Oil Pressure light and Check Engine light come on. Goodyear was unable to help and the Dealer said they would need to do an engine tear down which costs $650, and then fix the problem which they estimated could be up to $2000. The car is nearly 10 years old and I regularly get the vehicle serviced, I love my car. I am not experiencing any kind of odor or smoke of any kind, but I'm wondering what alternatives I might have before I invest that kind of money into an older car. I do intend to buy a new vehicle by years end, but for now, does anyone have any advice as how I can fix the engine for a much cheaper price? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
