Porsche will tell you that consumption is within acceptable tolerances and all repairs are at your expense.

Remember since it's dry sump you could carry anywhere from the minimum to multiple x's what you need.

That won't fly with manufacturers. They want to setup the absolute minimum amount needed to keep weight down to keep up with EPA absurdly set MPG mandates.
Sadly, the dealers already live in a plug and play world that no longer requires diagnosis, just replace the cell instead of repair the problem.
