Is this Normal?

I have a g35 At 2005 which just hit 90K miles. I been noticing that after each oil change im only getting 3 quarts and a lil bit back from the old oil drained. Its this normal or my car is burning oil or something? I Use Mobil 1 synthetic 5w-30 with Bosch filter always. thanks sorry if this is a noob question just curious.

You should try to pay closer attention to the level of the oil in your car on a more regular basis. If only 3 quarts drained out, your oil level according to the dipstick was probably below the 'L' mark. It's a good habit to try to check the oil level on a monthly basis (in general), and probably more often if you suspect that you may have an oil consumption problem.
