Right when I hit about 5,000mi I had to add a quart as well. My Car started barking at me to add 1 Quart so I did. problem solved. I also think the scheduled 10K Miles oil change is ridiculous and should be done every 3-5K especially since our cars are forced induction.
I always keep a quart or two in the trunk just in case.
I had this same issue on my E92 335i so its not uncommon. I think if you smell burning oil that's a diff story altogether.

I had to add almost a quart of oil when I reached approximately 5300 miles. I followed the manufacturers procedure for break-in (from the owners manual) and researched mildly online to learn that SOME oil consumption is normal for the N55 motor.

I'm already at 19,000 miles and I'm about half a quart low on oil. Will top it off again today.
