Consumer Description

I OWN A 2011 AUDI A4. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2013. IT WAS OKAY WITH OIL FOR A YEAR BUT AFTER THAT I NOTICED IT WOULD NEED OIL MORE OFTEN THAN BEFORE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERY TIME IT NEEDED OIL, WHICH WAS AROUND 900 MILES DRIVEN, AND THE DEALER TOLD US IT WAS NORMAL. AS OF TODAY I AM PUTTING ONE QUART OF ENGINE OIL EVERY 500 CITY MILES. I THINK IT IS USING WAY TOO MUCH OIL
