FWIW at ~50,000kms my Mk5 Golf GTI went from being a sipper of oil (~half a litre per 10,000) to 1 litre per 300kms within a couple of weeks. Clearly something failed, whether it be rings, cylinder lining I don't know. Nor it seems, did the dealer. Since the warranty repair with a new ring design the engine has gone back to sipping oil at its original low level. Hopefully it stays that way.
