I duno. Do you have an external leak?Do compression test and if differential isnt within spec. Wet test to see if rings or valves. All engines have some blowby but thats excessive burning or leaking

Ok. Leak points dont matter. Just were ever the fluid is leaking from. Its kinda sounds like you might have a little leak of your own
 so i'll leave |

Ya i guess thats true. Our engines are quite a few feet long so might be kinda hard to spot a 1 liter oil leak

Man your car is thirsty. That's a lot of oil. CCv, oil cap, filter housing o- ring, engines leaks,etc,. So to answer your main question- yeah that's not normal amount.
