Quick update on this? I’m going through 1 quart every 2-3k miles now at 45k total miles on the car. Is this only a Macan turbo phenomenon?

I thought Euro Macans included a leather zipper pouch in the rear hatch area for an extra quart of oil on hand at all times for this very reason? They don't do that here in the US because most Americans don't know how to open a hood let alone where to add oil at anymore.

I only have a little over 5K miles on mine and haven't noticed any consumption, but I performed my own oil and filter changes every 5K miles. I think having to add a quart in between service intervals with turbo engines is not uncommon especially with recommended intervals being 10K miles. I used to add half a quart to my 2.0T GTI every 3K miles or so.

My S and GTS are the same. They use a little oil, 1 quart every 6K miles or so.
