Every 3000 miles I need to add about 1 liter of oil to my '08 ML63. Anybody else have to do the same? I change my own oil and filter every 5000 miles and use the recommended Mobil 1 0w-40.

I find that if I have high way time that it will use some oil, I have had to add another liter twice between "scheduled oil changes" and was told that its normal for such a high performance engine to blow off some oil at high temp. My dealer just tops me up while i wait...

47k on the Odometer now.
