Thats a lot of oil consumption and seems excessive for such a relatively low mile engine. The fuel mileage you are getting seems right, I doubt you have any engine problems. Is it the turbo oil drain line going to the turbo that's leaking? There is a seal kit for the drain line. I would start here. As far as maintenance, the most important things to do is change the oil hot and often and keep the fuel filters clean. Welcome to the diesel club and good luck.
