i love it other than the color... it's gunmetal grey

mine has been burning oil between oil changes
drinks a quart every 1500 miles
i've never had a car do this

i've read a little about it on the audi forums, mine isn't the only one burning oil
it's still under warranty, so i want it documented
that's towards the high end of what the 2.0T will do but not a surprise.
That's about what our GTI used to go through.
I actually find it odd that the Q5 we have now uses just about no oil, not that I'm complaining.

in the case of the GTI, I just felt it was enough to keep an eye on but nothing I lost sleep over.
Might be because I've had cars that used a quart every hundred miles.
These days I just feel spoiled.

Well, my Suzuki Swift ZC21S with a M15A engine, doesn't consume oil or is so negligeble that I can't measure, every 5000miles when I change oil and filter 4.5 liters of oil come out . . .
