I've got an 07 EX coupe, and I've got around 1700 miles on it right now. I've noticed that it's lost a little bit of oil. I've read that consumption in the first few thousand miles is normal but I've only read that in the context of Honda's performance engines (mainly K series) and not the R18.

Is it normal for the R18 to use a little bit of oil this early in its life?
