If this is indeed the case, then my assessment of oil consumption on my engine was probably a little exaggerated.
After 2,850 Miles, the oil was right in the middle of the Hashmarks.
I made certain that after the last oil change, (2,850 miles ago), the oil stood right at the top point on the Hashmarks.
If from min. to max. it is indeed 1 Quart, then it is fair to assume that from max.- to mid. area of the hashmarks, it would be ~ 0.7 of a Quart (since I guess that the reading within the hashmarks area is not exactly linear).
This would effectively mean that the consumption of my engine was more like ~ 22.5 oz per 2,850 Miles.
This does not seem like an abnormal consumption for a DI engine?
