This is not a normal oil consumption of the high end vehicle bmw series 7 or any other high end vehicle. So far i have not been given a reasonable explanation. Dealer ship (peake bmw) is advising that no oil leaks noted and oil not coming out trough the tail pipe ? So what is going on? Can someone at bwm recognize and acknowledge this problem or do i have to go back and contact bmw in germany and ask for their assistance. I have had and still do ( mb s500 ,bmw 535i etc.) and never had any problem like this. Have other vehicles and trucks and never had to add any oil in between the services. This is embarrassing,driving $85k vehicle and have to stop at the gas station to fill up some oil ???
