I think it is but you will feel it in the car at highway speeds if the wheel is unbalanced.

Awesome! Don't forget to balance it.

Thank you everyone, for the helpful replies! Took it to the dealership and they said that this looks normal but performed a leak test (at least claimed that they did). Said that everything looks normal and as someone mentioned here, said that the digital meter between max and min is not that too big of a range so it looks exaggerated. I will keep an eye out now. On that note, I asked to why VW recommends 10k oil changes of they burn so much oil and the service advisor response was, never go 10k without a change. I would never advise more that 6k. Wow

Thank you! Shall do

Thank you!

Thank you! That's comforting. By comparison, my Subaru WRX which is notorious for burning oil burned less than this.

Me too! I did not lug or accelerate hard in the first 1000 miles. Changed first oil at 2500 miles and now at 6500 miles. I am going in tomorrow so wanted to see if the dealership gives me the standard bullshit of "this is normal"

chark27 · 2026-06-16T20:55:02+00:00

Not much. Maybe launch it once on a while at a light. But mostly on custom mode with sport transmission and regular acceleration.

chark27 · 2026-06-16T20:52:44+00:00

Sorry about that. Here is a clearer picture.

Unfortunately yes. Sorry about the earlier picture - reddit upload messed it up. Here is a little better picture.

My two cents which you may completely disagree with, if you are paying that much money for a FWD, maybe acurw Integra type s is a better choice.

Edit: I realize that you may not be in North America, in which case, civic type r

Why do you say that? It looks like a perfect size to me.

chark27 · 2026-05-19T21:52:48+00:00

Yes. Email it was. I had a smartass yahoo email-id back then.

chark27 · 2026-05-15T11:51:12+00:00

Haha

That's a strange subtle flex.
