I had this happen to me to. It happened Tuesday night and again Wednesday morning. My car had 4800 miles at the time. Luckily, I had already scheduled a service appointment to get the mp3 retrofit for my pre-Sept e90 w/nav, so they just added a quart of oil like the oil check screen said.

Is this normal? What does it mean when you're new car (pre 5,000 miles) is burning oil like that? I'm not an agressive driver or anything, and I am conscious about fuel economy.... but I like to have fun with the car on occasion, don't get me wrong.

Any feedback? Thanks.
