Engine is noticeably smoother after the top-up. Did you folks notice the same after top-up?
You're not clear on what you mean by top-up. Do you mean an entire quart/liter? If so, 3 liters in 3000km is a problem. No engine should drink this much oil.

If you are simply trying to keep the oil meter at full by adding a little oil, then you are wasting your time. The engine will be fine between the OK marks. Just wait until the car indicates to add oil and it will take exactly one liter.

I just added my 2nd quart at 8900 miles. Drove into the dealer, dude poured in a quart, drove out. Engine runs the same.
