Does the new A4L burn engine oil?
1 Answers
The Audi A4L engine does not exhibit oil burning or blue smoke from the exhaust; the main issue is higher-than-average oil consumption. Oil consumption rate: Audi officially states that consuming 0.5 liters of oil per 1,000 km is normal. If oil consumption is significant within an oil change interval, you can visit a 4S dealership for a free top-up of the same oil type. In cases of severe oil consumption, you may claim a new engine replacement. Symptoms of oil burning: If a vehicle "burns oil," it can lead to premature failure of the oxygen sensor, increased carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, unstable idling, lack of acceleration power, higher fuel consumption, and excessive exhaust emissions. In severe cases, insufficient engine lubrication may cause irreparable damage or even engine failure, significantly increasing repair costs and posing potential safety hazards.
