2013 AUDI A4 Unknown Or Other Problems

My Audi A4 failed to start on the coldest day of the year when my daughter was out doing errands and left it for an extended time parked outside. When she returned and tried to start the car, she got an error message: "Steering defective! Do not drive vehicle!" She re-tried over a dozen times, leaving the vehicle and returning to try again....to no avail. It was extremely cold so she retreated into the building and searched the internet and found others who had had this same problem. She finally called a friend who came to pick her up and take her home. I called Audi, and they confirmed that it's a know problem that occurs in extreme cold and there's no way to get it started until things warm up. We waited until later in the day before my son and I drove over and successfully got the car...

JUST PURCHASED THE CAR APRIL 13, 2020. STRONG GASOLINE SMELL EMITTING FROM FRONT END OF VEHICLE AND IN CABIN. SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE OF CAR. DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. DOES NOT MATTER IF THE GAS TANK IS FULL, HALF, OR EMPTY. CAN'T FIND ANY LEAKS UNDER THE HOOD, BUT STILL HAS A VERY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE.

THE CAR HAS BEEN BURNING THROUGH OIL. IT HAS BEEN REQUESTING A QUART OF OIL BE ADDED JUST ABOUT EVERY 500-700 MILES. ABOUT A YEAR AGO THE PROBLEM STARTED IN EARLY 2019 AND AT FIRST IT WAS JUST EVERY 1200-900 MILES THAT THE CAR WOULD ASK FOR AN EXTRA QUART OF OIL. THEN IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE ASKING FOR A QUART OF OIL EVERY 500-700 MILES; THIS IS ALL IN ADDITION TO THE REGULARLY SCHEDULE OIL CHANGES.
