I have worked in car dealerships for many years and have handled numerous Audi models. The 2021 Audi models show significant advancements in engine technology, especially their mainstream engines like the third-generation EA888, which features optimized piston ring and oil seal designs. Compared to older models from the 2010s, oil consumption issues have been greatly reduced. Under normal driving conditions, the oil consumption rate is very low, requiring only minor top-ups every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers, well within the manufacturer's standards. However, if owners notice rapid oil loss, such as more than 0.5 liters per 1,000 kilometers, it could indicate an individual engine fault, like leaking valve seals or cylinder wear. I recommend users regularly check the oil dipstick and not wait for the warning light to appear. Using the manufacturer-recommended oil can help minimize risks.
