I've head some customers with excessive oil usage get the response that a quart every few thousand miles is "normal".
Luckily, most BMW and other brands don't tend to use that much oil.
Also, turbo's tend to use more oil than NA engines.
I can accept 1 quart every 5000-7000 miles, but not under 5K miles.
But not much you can do when the manufacturer says it's "normal". You'll have a fight on your hands.
