335D oil consumption

Have any of you had to top up the oil on your 335D's.

Mine has now done 4,000 miles and has only used about 1/2 litre...(a pint?)

A mate has a Golf MKV TDI 140 and his has consistently used about a pint amount per 1000 miles over the last 15k. however i know that the VAG TDi is notorious for its love of oil.

Not a direct answer but I have a 320D and have not had to add any oil whatsoever since I bought it!!! (Apr 2005) It has had an oil change though!

When I first got the car, it was really hard to see where the oil level came on the dipstick. After about 1,000 miles the oil was dark enough to see, and it was below the half-way mark even when cold, so I put about half a pint in. I haven't been very far since, but will keep an eye on it over the next few months. I'm interested to hear how much oil other 335d's are using - this is the first BMW I have actually owned from new (others were company cars) so I'm being more careful.

It might be worth you posting on the Europe sub-forum aswell.
