that's great to hear buddy. i was actually directing that more to BGROPER because it seems hes new to the R. the oil burning problem is common in the mk7 and was actually a major problem with most oils in the mk6 . but its good that you dont notice any more or less oil burn compared to any of your other cars.. because i certainly did while using OEM SPEC CASTROL EDGE. not so much or at all with PENRITE or SHELL.
