Oil is down a quart every month. The dealer has checked for a leak and found none.
The dealer says the car burning this much oil is "normal"
Is it normal?
If not, what do I, before the warrwnty runs out.

You have an extended warranty thru the dealer, good luck getting them to admit that the oil consumption is abnormal, BMW says 1 quart in 1500 miles is acceptable and it goes higher for the M motors. The fine print might be worth reviewing on that warranty contract mate.
