VW 2.0T question

[Tony Hoffman]

Very common on 2.0T's. Piston rings are common, early wear leads to
burning. Have them take them into the dealership, they will do a
consumption check. Anything higher than 1qt/800 miles or so will probably
be covered by VW. However, full service history will be required, per VW
recommendation. I believe it's oil change every 10k, + or - 10%.
