At first I thought my car wasn't gong to use any oil as it was fine until the 1200 mile service and even after for a while. At 9K miles however it has been asking for a litre about every 1500 miles since the initial service. Runs great though so I'm not too bothered. My E60 M5 never used oil at all, and I ran that car hard.

Interesting.

What's your take on 0W-30?
