Come on Guys. I need your replies to prove that the oil consumption in my car is ubnormal. The larger the number of replies the more i am able to prove that they are trying to cover up a manufacturing defect.
The question again:
Did any user of an E60 on this site experience engine oil consumption of 1 liter of oil (1 quart) every 2900 Km (1800 miles) in their cars?
An answer of YES or NO will do it.

It's a NO from me. (but mine is a 2003 model with the M52 engine I believe).
Shebs,
NO.
Had an oil top-up after 4k - 5k but this was apparently normal on the M54 engine. Luck of the draw I guess on how much oil was put in at the factory
I had a similar oil top up about the same mileage on my E46 320iSE which had the 2.2 M54 engine a few years back too.
