it's normal/expected for an engine with 155k to burn some oil. to reduce oil consumption in an older engine, repairs would usually include replacing pistons/piston-rings. mechanic can pressure-test each cylinder individually to see how bad the rings have degraded and whether they are leaking so badly that some cylinders are below proper compression spec.
