    Car coming up to 12,000 miles and oil is approaching low level, is that typical?

    Audi claim anything upto 500ml in 1000k is not ot of the ordinary, so adding 500ml after 12k miles is wellwithin tolerances

    True, they will not enact any sort of warranty repair who it proof that the oil consumption is greater than 500ml per 620 miles and to do this Audi carry out a strictly controlled test where the amount of oil used is weighed in grams not in ml.

    Always found these oil usage threads interesting (concerning?)

    I’m presuming that some of the usages getting quoted are down to driving style as well?

    My C7 2.0 TDII is approaching 100k miles, uses no oil between services, and never has done. I would be concerned if my motor used these type of levels.

    A premium 5w30 oil that conforms to vw 507.00 such as Castrol Edge or Mobil 1. EuroCarParts has 45% off promotion at the moment

    Costco also usually do a good normal or promotion price on Castrol Edge 5W30. Worth checking out if available to you.
