OTOH, I can burn as much as 2l in 250kms if I drive really hard. And a whole tank of fuel as well
LOL, but you are running a little more boost!

My 2003 CTT has been exclusively lubricated with Mobil 1 0-40 for 190,000 km in the harsh Australian climate.

No issues and consumption averages 1 litre per 1000 km.

I just drove 1000 miles all highway the last 2 days and the CTTS oil gauge dropped one notch. I added a quart before the trip, but I think the consumption might also be because I'm due for an oil change soon.

I bought my 09 GTS IN March and immediately did an oil/filter change with Mobil1 0W-40. Since then it has used about a liter of oil in 4000mi ( 6500km). I drove it hard, but mostly boulevard miles.
