Yes, I think it is. I think something is wrong here. If you barely saw some oil om the dipstick after only two monts use, it uses too much oil, imo. I find it strange that your dealer told you the oil consumtion was 'not too bad'. Wonder what they really meant by that statement. It doesn't sound very seriously, if I can put it that way. Maybe you should consider to change dealer. I think I would. After all, the oil issue is a very serious matter!
