Oil drinking A4 tfsi b7

[deanodinia]

hi I'm fairly new to the forum, I've bought an A4 Quattro around 6 weeks ago and it has drunk a litre of oil in 1150 miles since its last service done by the previous owner with receipts is this normal or is the there an underlying problem?
Cheers guys

I've got the same problem.
£2500 fix.
Common fault on these engines.
I'm doing 650miles per litre of oil.
Could be worse.

Moved to the B7 forum, and bumped.

It is well documented issue across all the 2.0tfsi in the B7 & B8 's etc, you'll either have a drinker or not , but audi quote in the owners manual that the engine can depending on how the car is used / driven anything upto 0.5 litres of oil can be used per 600klm, so your around normal, nothing to worry about.

Id be well happy if mine only used 1 litre per 1150 miles! be grateful lol!

It's using a litre between top ups every 250 miles, will the engine blow up?

Check your intercooler pipes, if you have oil in them (lots of oil) than there is ur problem.
