Mike I have exactly same make/model/engine/colour.age as you (but its a quattro)and it was first registered in June 2011. Ive only had it for three weeks and had a long life service done for me immediately prior to purchase. After doing around 1k miles I see the oil level has dropped from full to three quarters and as such I have sent a mail to the Service Manager and his assistant at my local dealer asking for their input into my specific problem. Should I be calling Audi UK in the morning before calling my local dealership for an update?
Btw I love the car and previously had an 04 plate 2.5tdi quattro sport and never added a drop of oil to it between services. Does this level of oil consumption sound excessive or is it just the norm for petrol engines? Ive had diesels for years and cannot remember if my previous petrol cars used a lot of oil,,cheers
As SB said mate all you can do is monitor it and see how it goes. Pointless doing anything yet as on those figures it will easily pass an oil consumption test. Things can start going downhill quickly tho..
Strange how one month can differ between cars..
There was no choice in mine getting fixed as there was a recurrent misfire on cylinder 2 related to the oil problem. That spark plug in particular was soaked in oil.
Since the rebuild there has been no oil usage since the beginning of Feb..
Any other news today Ryan? It's annoying trying to get things sorted with Audi but you will be ok soon.
I'm still calling Audi nearly 4 months since the start of the problems trying to sort a service out...
