Reply With QuoteTalked to the service guys today and I am now running an oil consumption test.
They do agree now that there is no such thing as running in oil.
Not sure how many liters a Polo GTI takes, but in 5000kms Ive almost changed the oil once already lol
My brand new polo has normal oil consumption
My brand new Polo has excessive oil consumption
I don't care about it, I keep my new Polo for short time
I saw this thread (or am owner of Polo) and I wouldn't buy new Polo
I keep my car longer and will do what necessary to get ithis issue resolved.

Yeah I will also agree to this! There is no such thing as run in oil. Obviously I would give the engine some time to run in but after 5000km everything should be 100% without any excuses. Most engines these days are run in from the factory so if you have high consumption after 5000km expect to have a dud.
