This precision suggested by the factory for short (200 km) runs may be
warranted if you need to know now what your consumption is and have not been
monitoring it. I prefer to keep track of the mileage and amount of oil I add
and calculate consumption as Chuck says, the old fashioned way over a few
thousand km. I also think a trend in consumption is often more useful than a
precise spot rate of oil consumption.
