Agreed, my sister's 99 Jetta did the same thing. She started complaining at 18K miles of burning oil, just a little, but getting it documented is crucial. She kept complaining, for years, and it kept getting worse until it was ludicrous.
The dealers actually have a form they record consumption with for filing with the warranty paperwork. My sister only did 3 trips before they caved and rebuilt the engine. I do have to hand it to VWoA, though, it didn't cross the threshold until 80,000 miles and they still picked up the whole bill, including a few other parts in the engine that weren't long for this world. Mind you, the '99 warranty was 2/24...
Their goodwill ensured that her next car was a VW -- she just took delivery of an '03 Wolfsburg.
