I have an interesting data point. When I first got my 650i, it was consuming about 1 quart of oil every 1100 miles. I recently had my first dealer service performed. Seemed silly because I had added more oil than what they would have replaced in the first oil change.

But interestingly, I've now gone a couple thousands miles since that dealer service, and I haven't had to add any oil to my 650i! Somehow the first service "fixed" the issue in my case.

I'm adding this tidbit just to confuse the situation even more. Somehow my car's oil consumption issue changed after the initial service. Maybe the tech fixed something and didn't note it in the service notes.
