Oil Eating Machine

I've had my X6 for about 13 months now, and have been going through oil like crazy. I drive about 1200 miles per month, and seam to get a low oil light once a month, until I top it off with a quart. About 3 months ago, after the dealership checked everything out, they found I was leaking oil into the turbos. They fixed this, but now I'm back to a quart per month for the last two months. Any thoughts what is going on? Is this normal? Seems abnormal to me.
Thanks!

I was told they won't do anything about it unless it is more than a quart every 750 miles. If I wanted to drive to Chicago from here I would need to take a gallon and a half with me...

I'm still under maintenance and they won't give it to me in advance.
