Default Oil Low Early?

Has anyone had this happen?
I park my car in an underground parking garage, there are no drips on the ground.

The other week when I went to an Audi GTG, there was a Moro Blue TT 03 225 just like mine. He asked me if I've experienced the problem. Sure enough, the previous Thursday when I went to get my oil changed, it was "extremely low".

What are your thoughts and/or experiences?

most likely bad pvc valve, small leak, or bad piston ring(s). Pick one and start looking.

start with pcv system get the three way housing and pcv valve and the three way suction valve.....all from ecs tuning.com.....you will have to remove the intake manifold to gain access to all that stuff.....also a stuby flathead and a dremel to cut the old one time use clamps off will do wonders

i like the tiny flathead screwdrivers (like you would use on glasses) to pop the ends up and then either finish them off with a normal flathead or some pliers.
