Sounds like bad rings or valve seals. If its the latter of the 2 its a fairly easy fix. If its the rings its a lot more work.

compression check will reveal rings if you put some oil in thur and the reading goes up, its rings. And honestly, if its valve seals, and its not buring a **** ton of oil, i wouldnt worry about it

drove my old 3.0 acclaim for 2 years with bad valve seals. it burned a quart between oil changes. Not too bad i guess.

prolly rings. i know a few buddys who had the same problem with 1.5 and 1.6 honda motors with that many miles on them. drive it till it starts fouling the plugs. LOL. then takem out and cleanem and keep driving it.
