Thing is I check my oil all the time, at least every 4 weeks at a max time gap. However, this time she took 1 litre of oil. Also just started to notice a puff of blue smoke when I give it the beans.
That must be too bad if true. Is it still under warranty? If yes, don't worry. If not, don't panic until you have the quote.

Not me, fortunately. Mine eats approx. 1/4-1/3 litre a year (according to the computer: I can't tell the stick level, no matter how hard I try to follow the procedure as described in the manual ). It drops at once and then persists a few more months (that's the measurement/display accuracy, I believe) until the oil change.

Right you are, but hopefully it's all right.
