Bound to be losing oil thro the breather system. I've noticed my oil consumption has dropped noticeably since adding this modification

Up to 1 litre of oil per thousand miles is considered acceptable for this engine when driven hard

lol mate if only every gsi user were so lucky

gsi engines were made with under sized pistons from factory, only slightly, but enough to use more oil than most cars, and the problem gets much worser with age as the bores are worn
