This problem comes down to factory tuning. Manufacturers will enrich the fuel to bring down burn temps to keep from destroying catalytic converters. Driving differently like someone stated will not resolve a tuning issue. What happens when the fuel mixture becomes to rich it washes down the cylinder walls removing the oil film and it passes the piston rings. Some fuel always gets by but it less amounts. By flashing a new tune and fixing mixture it resolves the issue.
Oil contamination by gas was a common issue for old carburetor cars.
Many direct injection cars can run leaner safely.
