I've asked the dealer to check this out on numerous occasions but even the manual says you're supposed to to that. It's crazy!! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
Mine? None. Even at the 5K mile mark it's spot on full. It holds 6.5L with oil filter during the change.

My experience with Alfa's are from Germany, and they do use oil. Heh, they aren't too fuel efficeint either. But when it's right, it's tight. You didn't mention mileage, year or motor, but me tinks 1L per 1Kk is normal in most Alfa's with 160+K Kms.
