Default my STIMY03 uses no oil... is it normal...

Just checked my oil yesterday again and again it hasn't used a drop of oil...
Done 26k in a year... and other than the services it hasn't use a single drop of oil... the level just doesn't change... just below the seconf hole...

Is it normal or do they normaly use a bit...???????/

It probably has used some oil but the water from a leaking head gasket has taken it's place!!
My 99MY didn't and neither does my 03STi at the moment. Can depend somewhat on the grade (viscosity) you are using.
