It would be interesting to see whether the different engine oil 5w-30 makes a difference or not.

The CTTS is a bear (a fast and strong one I know), it always needs oil. I am not sure why but that's how it is.
I also read in the manual that it needs a quart of 0W-40 Mobil 1 every few thousand miles.
I was told that the dealer's service dep. that it's normal and it in some cases it needs a quart every 1000 miles; depending on usage manner and frequency of usage.

Yes!!! the e60 M5 also has that "problem"... i believe the oil consumption becomes less after a while, doesn't? (or same?)

Of course, now I keep a quart of 0w40 in the CTT and 3 quarts of 20w50 in the 911 so not much has changed.

Yeah i can't believe either how much oil my 05 ctt burns. I feel like i drive a jalopy because i have to check the oil about everytime i fill the car up with gas. Its seems to take a quart about every 800 to 1000 miles. I mean i used to drive a 94 tt supra and even in its late days when it started to burn oil from the leaking valve stem seals it wouldn't use hardly any oil. I just expect more of a $100,000+ porsche car.
