Try taking your dipstick out and feeling if there is any Blow Back Pressure. If so its probably Piston Rings.

Maybe get someone to rev the car and take a wiff. If is coming out the exhaust and smells sweet, then it is probably burning coolant indicating a head gasket. If the car still runs, closely monitor your coolant level. If the car doesnt leak a drop of coolant yet the level goes down then it has to be going somewhere.
