i have a 2003 c230 kompressor and i noticed that every about 5000 km i have to add a litre of oil, at the dealership they told me that it is normal if you change your oil every 15000 km , i was just wondering if this also happens to anyone else?:confused:

It's not out of spec. MB as well as many car manufactures consider 1 qt/litre every 1000 km to be excessive. I've had 2 C230s, one about the same as you, and one that lasts about twice as long before needing a qt and sometimes I can go the entire 10K miles without adding any oil.
