have 2004 w/96K miles, 2.5T Getting oil consumption on 500+ mile trips when driving 75-80mph--if I drive 5oo miles around town, use nearly zero oil, but on highway runs, using about 1qt per 1,000 miles Wondering if pcv system is plugged and have read about that on this site. Where is the PCT nipple located? Would like to clean and check before diving into replacing oil box. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

PCT nipple is on the air intake hose from the filter to the turbo. It has an electrical connection.
Best way to clean it is to remove the air hose and then pry out the nipple. Soak it in brake cleaner and scrape out the deposits.
