Yes I added a quart at around 10k. It said via onboard diagnostics it was at minimum. I added a quart and it was ok.

I think it typical of any turbo car to burn a bit of oil especially during breakin, nothing to get freaked out about. Audi's on te other hand are strangely widely known for their love of devouring oil. Everyone I knew that owned an a4 always complained about the oil lamp being lit constantly. I have a friend at work and his wife's a4 needed new turbos before 10k and new timing belt. I like Audi styling but not a fan of their poor quality.
