Is it normal to burn 1 quart after 3.5k miles on 0w-20

I have a 2021 with 13.5k miles. Didn’t have burning issues all winter from 5000miles-10000miles, but after spring I burned 1 quart after 10,000-13.5k miles. I’m hoping my car doesn’t have a faulty engine, car is stock. Could it be the hard driving and thin oil with the weather heating up slightly that can cause this? Or should I bring it to Toyota at 15k and ask them to look at the oil.

1 quart in 3.5k isn't bad, especially with 0w20. If you take it to the dealer they'll just say that anything less than 1 quart in 1k miles is normal.

Yeah I figured it wouldn’t be too bad. I’m switching to 5w-30 next oil change. Not sure if I should use liquimoly or a different oil anyone can recommmend.

If you go up in weight, run 0w30. Second number is when oil is hot. First number is when it’s cold and you want a thin number Espec on a turbo car so the turbo gets oil fast…
