GK5 burning oil. No leaks no nothing. Any idea what it could be?

My 2015 is burning about a quart every 2000 miles and the oil needs to be changed about every 3000. Using full synthetic 0w20 so bad oil isn't the issue. No leaks anywhere. I've tried looking up what the issue could be but no luck. Has anyone else experienced this?

I don't know you but... the orange plastic end on the dipstick can be visually deceiving for me and it appears others too? Why does it need to be changed every 3000?
