I suspect the original posted just had something similar burning off.

I had the car visually inspected at the dealer they found no plastic bags or any leaks. They checked the brakes for unever wear and said they were fine too.
It was an unscheduled appointment so they only looked under the car there was no test drive or full diagnostic test.
If my car is burning oil already at 1400 miles then that is pretty pitiful. I did not drive it real hard yet.
