oil usage

Well...the leakage can be measured directly by putting a measuring cup under the drip, and collecting over a month ( or whatever).

Usage from a consumption point of view is the real measure. I've heard that 1 litre (quart) per 1500 miles is considered normal.

Note that the capacity of your system is (nominally) 11 litres.
