Cayenne owners - Check your oil
The low oil warning just came on, on our 2008 S. 
I pull the dipstick & barely reading...only 6000kms on it. My Turbo only needed a touch up even with 2 track days & 12,000kms. Weird...added well over 1L, closer to 2L.
Something to keep an eye on considering oil changes are so far apart.

Thank you for the heads up.. Looks like that's considered 'normal' according to this thread...

Yeah it's normal to be adding oil often...I decided to drive my CTT with PSM off for a week or so and drove it hard...RPMs were going pretty high before shifting and it caused me to add another quart in like 500 miles! 
If you don't drive hard, I'm sure it'll go longer...but what's the fun in that?
