Subscribed. I haven't had my oil changed yet but right now mine's at about 13mm with 3300 miles on the clock. Of course, I have no idea whether my car was filled completely to "H" at the factory but worst-case (13mm) I'm still within the safe zone. I've also only checked the oil two other times and the level doesn't appear to have changed. I'll definitely keep an eye on it once I get my oil changed at 3750 miles.

Don't cars tend to burn more oil during the break-in period? In other words, wouldn't consumption be at its worst when the car is brand new?
