Re: GTI Oil consumption
Running Millers oil 0w20, done 32 000 km and no top ups needed but I did a few oil changes already (5K, 17K, 30K).
Re: GTI Oil consumption
No top ups, dont mean it does’nt consume some...

Re: GTI Oil consumption
If it didn't consume enough to need a top up then its not a big concern. Mine had the oil level stay at the top of the dipstick the whole time I owned it, before and after its first service. Oil use should be negligible for mine.
I've had 11 VWs from new and the only one that used an appreciable amount of oil between services was run in on motorway miles (used a litre every 1500 miles) - I wouldn't recommend it. The rest never needed top up between oil changes.
