Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THE A4 USED WITH ONLY 19K MILES ON IT. I NOTICED THAT AFTER DRIVING 1,000 MILES, 1 QUART OF OIL WAS GONE. I FILLED IT BACK UP AND DROVE ANOTHER 1,000 MILES. THE SAME THING. I HAVE A FAMILY RELATIVE WHO OWNS A VW PASSAT WITH THE SAME ENGINE AND HER CAR BURNED OIL TOO. AUDI SAYS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT IT'S SOMETHING THE OWNER WILL HAVE TO GET USED TO. THIS IS NOT NORMAL, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ENGINES. THERE ARE SO MANY FORUMS AND SITES DEDICATED TO THE VW/AUDI 2.0T ENGINES CONSUMING OIL. *KB
