Piston seal...
Engine oil leak into combustion chamber...
That's y u need to top up regularly, most probably not leaking tat bad that's y not much white smoke. Over time will become worse.[/list]

If keep having white smoke n keep topping engine oil meaning a leak somewhere
Possible could b
Piston ring piang
Valve seal piang
Water go into engine
Headgasket piang

Go and visit a mech to do a through check. Topping up engine oil weekly obviously is a sign there is something wrong.

Check your radiator water... If its milky brown color, then means head gasket gone... Time for a top overhaul... Change the piston rings too... Most likely they are worn...
There's always a better 2molo...........
