One thing I find pretty incredible is that my 991 does not move a single tick / fraction of a quart between yearly oil changes *knock* ![Stick Out Tongue](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
What is your experience with your 911 and oil consumption?

9k miles, two oil changes, one after break-miles, one at a year, no added oil in between.

Mine seems to not use any either. I've got a buddy with a 997.1 C2S, and he fills the oil and checks the gas.

My 2015 has 54,000 miles and has not needed any oil added between the service intervals.

Zero oil consumption with 112K miles on the car.
I do change oil at 5,000 mile intervals.

If you are basing no oil use by the bars on the MFD you can still burn some without it showing a loss since there is about 200ml (~6.7 ounces) per bar on the 991s.

none with over 95000; change oil and filter at 5k intervals (no I am not reigniting oil change interval controversy and not suggesting that those who wait 10k are somehow negligent)

Bought my '17 poverty spec C2 last June with 18K miles.
In October, I added 250 ml of oil to bring it up to the bar I wanted it at (one down from top.) I did an oil change in January at 25K miles. Since then I added 200 ml of oil, but only because I waited a week or so to let the oil level settle in. Same reason though, I wanted to have the level at the bar just under max.
Otherwise, zip in 8,000 miles of my ownership.

Have about 23,000 miles on mine. Added about 250 ml of oil last year. That's it.
Wonder if this year will be the same as last year or the same as prior years where I did not have to add any additional oil.
