My post below in the "turbo 4" thread as to my 2011 A4's oil consumption drew some interest so I thought I would post an update in a new thread rather than burying it below. Anyway, the car had been burning about 1/2 quart per 1000 mi. The dealer changed the seals, and told me to bring it back after 600 miles + to monitor. I brought it in today and after 1100 miles it had not burned any oil. So it is premature to say that the problem is solved, and we will continue to monitor, but the suggestions below that Audi would say that 1 quart per 1000 miles is spec, and that I can pound sand, are not consistent with my experience. I think the dealer is proceeding in good faith to resolve this (and this is a dealer with which I have long experience, from a previous VW).
