Excessive oil consumption?

Just got my test results back today. I used about 3/4 of a quart over 1000 miles coming up on 5K in my 2010 Roadster. Accoring to the (Infiniti) TSB

Just got my test results back today. I used about 3/4 of a quart over 1000 miles coming up on 5K in my 2010 Roadster. Accoring to the (Infiniti) TSB I should not have exceeded .43 of a quart within a 1000 mile test (Assuming low to high mark on the dip is 1 quart as they measure this stuff with a ruler in millimeters). So they ordered me a new short block. I noticed oil useage leading up to the first oil change that triggered the concern and ultimatly the dealers test.
