Oil consumption tests can be carried out at customers expense if found all ok.Hang on before you all see red.Heres how it works .the oil is drained and the correct oil capacity is then weighed and added to the engine,1000km are the driven without topping up and the oil temp is then raised to normall operating temp and the oil is then drained over 10mins without removing the oil filter.the weight is then subtracted from the specified weight to calculate the consumption figure is 0.50of a litre per 1000km.So if you didnt no what to do,you do now.
