problem #2

Mar 292019

A5 Premium Plus Quattro 2.0t

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,500 miles

Need to refill 1qt of oil for every gas tank or 400 miles.

Update from Jul 1, 2019: Audi of America did want to cover any cost because its after 8y/80k miles limit.

I paid for oil consumption test and stage 1 fix and issue is still there.

Audi need to fix all its engines because its proven to be a faulty design.

A5 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 49,000 miles

Purchased the car with 49000 miles on it was a leased vehicle with all Audi services done on regular basis. After one week my Wife told me it needs OIL ! this went on for ever ADD OIL ADD OIL ! Finally Audi replaced Pistons and rings with in a few months same problem came back. Last time it needed OIL I stopped put OIL in and within 300 FEET a CLOUD of WHITE SMOKE CAME OUT of EXAUST PIPE AND ENGINE QUIT ! Had it towed to AUDI 175.00 TOW Bill Audi changed OIL and Spark plugs charged me 775.00 for repairs because plugs and oil change is not covered with extended warranty . Now back to TRACKING OIL comsumption What is next ? Is a real NICE car just want WHAT I PAID FOR ! a CAR THAT DOES NOT CONSUME OIL each time it is driven. Was a leased vehicle Audi knew the problems with this car and still PASSED it on to next Person
