    I have the same experience.
    I was told the same thing by the dealer.
    I only have 5000 miles on the car, so I guess time will tell if he's right.

    On our cayenne S 2008 we have driven 7500 miles and have added 6 quarts of oil. We are told by Porsche Customer Service that this is normal. However, we have had several porsches and this cayenne is our 2nd cayenne. We have never added a drop of oil to any of our cars, other than normal oil changes.

    Well, I had that problem and was told the same thing. However, it really did not ask oil after 15K, I'm @18K now and never ask me oil from me again...
