I guess this isnt very helpful but why do people buy Z's without researching into them, it is well documented that Z's have oil consumption issues and its very prevalent on all the forums about how to check for it, be mindful of it, and inform yourself on it.

If you think you are having oil consumption issues go to your dealer and let them do the test for it. Or check your oil after the car has cooled down and write down where the oil is, fill it to the appropriate level and check in another week or so.

However if you are truly at the L mark yes bring it to the dealer, if u are "close" to the L but have wiggle room above the L mark fill it with oil and check consistently until you see a change.
