Yep that too. There was a guy on the 12v forum who ran an engine cleaner and later had all kinds of oil leaks/consumption.

Justice Bros, i saw a post on audiworld about this stuff, research it for yourself to find more details. My next oil change im going to use it. linky
the link doesn't seem to work.

if the cleaner clogged up something else couldn't you run it again to clean that?

Good point Jest. When I did mine I was having the clogged oil screen problem. It's never consumed oil, before or after I flushed it. At the time I did it out of desperation. I really didn't want to have to pull the pan and replace the oil pump. I drained two quarts of oil out, put in two quarts of ATF. I ran it for a hundred or so, drained, new filter, refilled with the same mixture of oil and ATF. Ran it for another 200 (I think) then drained it again. After all that, I still got an oil pressure light, so I pulled the pan (unfortunately it's not quite that simple) and replaced the pump and pickup.
