9-3 new Aero using oil

New 9-3 jan. 05 after 3 months used 2.5 liters of oil as this is what I had to put in when the low oil warning came up on the info display. I half expected this as the manual did state excess burn may occur early on during break-in. I changed the oil at 18000km and used the recommended Mobil 1 0W30 oil to the top of the dipstick. To my surprise today the oil low warning again went off and another 2.5L req'd to fill but this time I decided to use 5W30 even though it is winter. Anyone else with the same problem or any reasonable solutions. Thanks.
