How much oil does your 2.0 TT use??
I got a min. oil light on my dash. My previous TT never used oil. Although I realize this is a totally different car, I was rather surprised. Is this normal? I am just under 15K miles now. Just wondering. Thanks!

All the 2.0T FSIs use oil to varying degrees. Mine uses ~1 quart every 5k miles which is average.
According to posts on vwvortex from GTI drivers VW says as much as 1 quart every 1000 miles is "normal". That's super extreme but it means it's obvious VW knows the 2.0T like to snack on it.

They tend to use oil in a non linear way
I don't see any loss for the first 3-3.5k miles between changes then a good bit of oil use in the last 1.5k. I usually top off a bit between oil changes.
