TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 AUDI A4. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS BURNING OIL VERY FAST. SHE WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE FOR THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE.

THERE IS A FOUL ODOR FROM THE HEAT/AC VENTS AFTER ONLY 4 MONTHS OF USE. THE CAR IS CLEAN FROM HEAD TO TOE SO I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE SMELL. I TOOK IT IN TO BE SERVICED AND THEY PREFORMED A TSB TO REMOVE THE ODOR. IT THEN SMELLED LIKE A MUSKY LEMON. A MONTH LATER THE FOUL ODOR IS BACK, NOT SURE WHAT IS CAUSING IT BUT NOT VERY PLEASED WITH THE BRAND NEW FUNK AROMA. I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK IN AGAIN. *TR
