Hi
I recently changed the oil on my EP3.
The oil i used was Motul 300V 5w30.
The first 1300 km, it didnt use a single drop.
But now I tjek'd again, 400 km after, and it have used 0,5 litre?!
It dosent smoke, and it dosent smell?
 
Check for leaks

Make sure your checking on a level surface to make comparisons :)
 
Unless you've measured it on different gradients on different occasions.

I'd do a dry compression test measure readings then do a wet compression test and measure readings.

Unless its valve stem seals but it would you'd get a little puff of smoke under load.
 
It's normal to use a bit of oil from time to time,

I think you would be better of with a 5-40 oil
