Toyota RAV4 2006: Symptoms of a transmission problem?
It certainly sounds like the same problem. Consult your dealer about it and ask what Toyota is prepared to do for you. We understand that Toyota was replacing the transmission ECM for owners with problem cars in the USA, but they have not been as forthcoming here. It would also be worth having it assessed by an independent auto transmission specialist so you know exactly what you're dealing with.

Toyota RAV4 2006: High oil consumption test
I would guess the reason the oil consumption is news to you is that you never check the oil and simply rely on the dealer to pick up a problem. He might not because it's most likely he simply drops the old oil and puts the new oil in, and he's not to know what had happened since he last saw the car. Now, you need to pursue the consumption tests to determine if it is too high, and if it proves to be so then pull the engine down and find the cause. If it proves to be a problem of manufacture then you've got a clear claim against Toyota, but if no such issue is found you could be left with the bill. In that case it would seem premature wear and I would recommend you pursue Toyota for at least part payment of the repair costs.
