    depends if your supercharged or n/a.

    supercharged: under a metal cap towards the rear on top of the blower, its etched PCV.

    n/a: passenger side of the upper intake manifold, under a cap you can twist off.

    The reason I ask is because I have had the car for 3 months, put 3,000 miles on it and today the low oil light came on. It was close to 2 qts. low.

    No obvious leaks, so it's got to be burning it? Just noticed it today, so haven't had a chance to check the plug color or exhaust.
