A3 Oil Consumption Poll

A3 Oil Consumption Poll
I am struggling with my A3 burning excessive oil.
I would like to poll other owners and ask what are their current oil consumption rates. If you could, please reply with the year, engine, mileageand miles (or Km) per Qt.
Thanks all for your help!

I'll start with mine: 2006, 2.0T, 25000 miles, 1750 miles/qt.

RE: A3 Oil Consumption Poll
I have 33K on my A3, purchased as a CPO with 25K, so my oil consumption data is still sparse. It had an oil change at 23K, and I changed it (using Mobil 1 0W-40) 5K later. I plan to do oil and filter changes every 5K.
So far it looks like about 2500-3000 miles/qt. No idea what the consumption was before my ownership.

RE: A3 Oil Consumption Poll
I drove 7500KM before the the service and didn't add a drop of oil. I asked them at the service and they said the oil use was 'normal' So unsure, but in terms of me having to add oil to keep in 'normal', I have used none. But then again...I drive a TDI...so by definition almost, it is an "oil burner" !!
