Audi A4 oil leakage and excessive oil consumption issue remains unresolved after recall inspection on Audi A4

Problem overview

Some Audi A4 owners report experiencing persistent oil leakage and excessive oil consumption even after recall inspections. Despite Audi's efforts to address these issues, many vehicles continue to face challenges related to oil consumption. Potential causes include worn-out piston rings that allow oil to seep into the combustion chamber and burn off. Feedback from customers indicates that certain models, particularly those with TFSI gasoline engines manufactured between 2008 and 2012, may have design flaws contributing to this problem. Additionally, some owners of newer models, such as the 2013 Audi A4, have reported burning over 1 liter of oil every 600 kilometers. Many Audi owners are closely monitoring their oil consumption and have observed significant usage even after repairs or replacements. This ongoing situation highlights the need for continued attention to the oil consumption issues affecting the Audi A4.
