My 2010 Q5 is at almost 15,000 miles and ready for its second oil change (first was at 5,000 miles) and I noticed on the MMI and my installed dipstick that I'm about 3/4 qt low on oil. This is my first Audi (3.2L engine) so I'm wondering if this slight amount of oil use (3/4 qt over 10,000 miles) is normal? I didn't baby the car excessively during break-in but I didn't drive it hard either, if that helps. I'm not overly worried, just curious on what to expect. I drive a combination of city and highway driving. Thanks for any help.

Some people with 2.0T have 1 liter per 1000km. You don't have oil consumption at all.

I have a 2010 3.2 with 10,000 miles. Already added 1/2 quart since last oil change at 5,000 miles. Turbos are known to drink lots of oil, but not quite sure about the 3.2. Service appointment scheduled at the end of the month.

This is the minimum oil consumption is almost none.
You're lucky I have a engine 2.0TFSI every 2000-2500KM add 1 liter of oil

Hmmm,
have had turbos since the 80's, both gas and diesel, and don't recall ANY of them drinking oil

that would concern me if oil disappeared ....

This is the first car (I changed the 11 cars out of which 6 Audi models) in my life to spend it like oil, but this engine 2.0TFSI is known. Type in the google "2.0TFSI oil consumption" will be a surprise to search results

Update - happy to report that now at 10k miles and the MMI display is showing full - so maybe it was just the break in period where a tiny bit of oil was used....

or maybe Audi did a google search too and decided to fix it with the recent model years ?!?
