Default SV8 oil consumption

Hi,

it looks my 2009 4.2 SV8 is consuming approx 1,5l of oil per 2000km, is this normal?

My driving style is quite normal, no high revs, only from time-to time few km of fun on highway but nothing brutal....(with warmed engine etc..)

I am using this oil: Total-EngineOils | Quartz 9000 Future 5W30

Car have 105 000km (65 000miles). What can I do?

Thanks

No - that's not normal. 65k miles is pretty moderate for these engines. You shouldn't be burning any oil

Any visible oil leak - grime accumulated in parts of the engine bay etc?

I'd take it in and have it checked out - likely a gasket somewhere that is leaking
