This is 'normal' according to Audi dealers. My 2.8 A4 uses a litre per 2000
miles and I have had this checked and is ok. Yours may reduce as the engine
gets older. It is expensive though as the oil is Castrol SLX Longlife 2
which at the dealers costs about 12ukp. I get mine from Ebay and save a fair
amount. I wonder if oil consumption reduces with the normal regime as
opposed to the longlife changes.

Hope this Helps
