Need advice: Oil level dropping between changes — how much is too much?

Not convinced that's the whole story. Two 2024 Land Rover Defenders can feel identical and have different causes, so measure before you copy someone else's repair. That's the branch I'd chase this week. Parts cannon is a personality type I try to avoid. Your commute and mine probably aren't the same, but the test still applies. If this is nothing, great. I want that in data.

Fair point. Counterpoint: A pressure test beats staring at a dry driveway if the 2024 Land Rover Defender is losing coolant with no puddle. Save the big job until that test fails. A shop burned me once by skipping that step. A day of patience here is cheaper than a wrong part. I'll update if anything new shows up.
