Oil consumption

[fastar76]

This may have been asked before. I'm trying to see how much oil others see on a 35i. The oil level goes from max to min in a few months with mixed nice and hard driving. I think it is a liter or one bottle of oil. Dealer fills it up for free but just trying to see if that is normal or not. I don't have exact number, just started to record all the gas fill ups and services and oil fill ups.

My 2012 doesn't go down till towards the end of the maintenance interval, it starts to burn more in the last 5k miles or so, and not in the first 5k+ miles.

I don't really know how many miles since last oil change. I should call the dealer to find out. I bought mine used. Luckily it was from the same dealer so they have records. I know it last time oil was changed was dec 2014. So it is almost an year now. Planning on getting it changed in October or nov. still have active maint program until end of 2016.

Zero oil consumption. The car's been rock solid. '11 w/ 51k miles.

It's been about a month now, between Mac and min on the display, I'm 1/4 or 1/5 down already from last top off.
