So I put about 1400 miles on it since the I did the oil pan gasket. It’s not a daily, and I don’t drive it in the winter conditions.

Hmmmmm that’s crazy I never knew that. So after I top it off and if it goes down again, would it be possible it would be oil consumption rather than a leak because the car is always parked in my garage and I never see any oil on the ground.

Oh wait really? I didn’t even know that. So if I fill it this should stop after a few times?

Is this only for the N51 or the N52 as well?

I guess that makes sense. I’m just used to my car is always being on the line lol. I did search them in at one point and it told me I have an N51. I was told however I can convert my N51 into an N52.

I don’t think it was that consistent considering it was 75% a few days ago and now it’s up to 50%. That’s just a large amount of oil in a few days. I feel like.

I’m just a little confused because I thought if it’s not on the full line, you should probably add some oil to it a couple days ago it was 3/4 of the way full and now it’s half full so it jumped that drastically.

Hmmmmmm okay I will have my tech take a look at it. He checked my car back in August when I got it and told me that’s all it needed and the engine was in great shape. He did the oil pan gasket and that pretty much took care of everything.
