Hey guys and gals,
How many of you out there have noticed your TDI's oil consumption. Had my first oil change done 3 months ago at it's recommended interval. I have currently 6500kms+ of oil life according to the MFD. I just happened to check the dipstick and I need to add a quart. Now I know it sounds paranoid but this is my first new car(ever). I'm unfamiliar if TDI's use any amount of oil in between oil changes. I'm use to the old TD which would use maybe a qt every 5 or 6(even more).
No evidence of a leak underneath the car. I have spoken with other TDi drivers which have told me that their car's barely use any oil. I don't drive my car like if I was in the TDI cup race.
Should I be worried or start approaching the dealership about this.
Cheers,
Simon
