All engines burn oil. Some oil has to get past the valve seals to lubricate the guides. Some oil has to get by the rings to lubricate the cylinders. Owners who see full on the dipstick after three or five thousand miles have enough contaminates in the oil to maintain the volume. I've had the experience where my car was seeing only city miles in cold weather, the dipstick read full and then when I put the car on the road, at the end of the day the oil level was down a quart. What happened was that all the gasoline and water in the oil got burned off.
Anyway, 0.3 quart or less in 1500 to 2000 miles causes me to suggest - no problem.
