Default 2014 ecoboost oil level rising

I have a 2014 ecoboost that in January of this year starting "making" oil. i had an oil catch can in place and was told to remove it when i took it in. they did the tsb for it with no fix. then they replaced the fuel pump and all 6 injectors even though they supposedly tested fine. the oil continues to rise. its at my local dealership currently being driven 500 miles by them with "diagnostic equipment" in place. ive contacted ford customer care about this issue with no real answers. has anyone had a resolution of this issue?

How much oil is it making? Does it smell like fuel?

Dealer performed the same replacements on mine with no fix. Ford eventually bought it back from me.

I think there was a TSB for some fuel in the oil but it sounds like you may have a more serious issue?

Since the thread has been rezzed -- 1qt per thousand miles is outrageous.

Mine makes a little bit -- best solution is to change your oil sooner. I do mine around the 3k mark.

How much oil is yours making Honey boo boo?

Don't let this become your problem. Find and fix or new motor.

From memory it is a High Pressure Fuel Pump issue. Gen 1 ecoboost is notorious for fuel in oil problems. Just trade the thing in and get something non ecoboost.
