Oil usage on 2009 X5 Diesel xDrive35d

2 days ago got a notice that oil was at minimum level. Next day I check oil level through IDrive and it comes up with Need to add 1 Quart. Took it to the Dealer (BMW Fremont) and it seemed like the tech didn't think a car with 5,500 miles and 4 months old would need that much oil so he took it back to the shop and confirmed that it did need 1 quart. Cost me $23 for the 1 quart which is a little annoying as the dealer said they would top it off!!! However, my main concern is this normal? Should I expect to add 1 quart between oil changes?
