955i oil consumption

I have recently bought an 03 955i with 2,500 miles on clock from a dealer.
Before a long trip I thought I would check the oil level and it was a litre and a half low. I assumed the dealer had not done the service properly so phoned and complained.
After another 500 miles it has used another half litre so it is going back to be checked as it is under warranty. There is no smoke and no leaks at all. Any one had anything similar or any idea what may cause this?
The bike runs fine, the only thing I notice is when I am slowing down, there is a series of what sound like mini back fires or crackles. Is this normal?

Thanks
