Wow, I never looked at the stats of the GTi so I didn't know it was so close to the Si stats. Well 40 more tq is quite a gain though. I always just assumed since they were turbos that they would smoke a Si, but I guess it is a prett close race.

I assumed the same to be honest so don't feel bad


Turbo'd since 04/2011

Oh I looked up the specs on edmunds and it said 2.0l But didn't say turbo. Although it does say direct injection I thought that referred to the fuel injectors or something. Maybe that means it has turbo??

So to clarify a GTI does have a turbo? Waaaay off topic for this thread but.... Lol

I think its so funny I've burned over 2 quarts on first 3500 miles ... now that I bring my car in every other Thursday they say its on full each time I bring it in. Its been 4 times I've brought it in and this Thursday they gonna tell me the same thing. Is it possible they are adding stuff to it? I'm at 4600 miles

Why don't you check it yourself before taking it in.
To check oil warm the engine / turn it off / wait 5 min. / pull the dip stick out / wipe it off with a clean cloth(or paper) towel / oil should be just under the top mark / The difference between the top & bottom mark is a quart.......... Check on level ground

have you been checking it when you go in? As monk said - check it yourself... to make sure nothing funny is going on. You may be one of the lucky individuals who no longer has oil consumption. Others have had that happen.
