kmackgttdi:
Wouldn't worry, most engines will use some oil, it's almost impossible not to. Just be thankful u ain't got an rx8 lol.

Stevepd:
I wouldn't worry at all, I've owned loads of VW's over the last 26 years of driving and they've all used oil. I'd be more concerned if they didn't :happy2:

GTiBlues:
I've found that my car uses little oil. Over the past 2,000 miles I've only just topped it up. It read half on the dip stick.

TyGTI:
I have just changed mine for the latest revision... mine is starting to drink more and more oil, plus there is some creamy oil around the oil cap recently as well.

Hoping it is just condensation, doesnt seem to be using any coolant
