Does the new Audi A6L burn engine oil?

The new Audi A6L burns engine oil. The situations where a vehicle burns engine oil include: wear of the engine's valve guide and aging of the valve oil seal, which create gaps, allowing engine oil to enter the combustion chamber and burn. Reasons for a car burning engine oil include: aging of the front and rear crankshaft oil seals, excessive piston clearance, clogged air filter, leaking valve oil seal, and insufficient sealing. Consequences of burning engine oil: incomplete combustion of gases in the engine's combustion chamber leads to increased carbon deposits, reduced vehicle power performance, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and more severe exhaust emissions, even exceeding standards. This also increases the economic burden on the owner. The engine's piston rings can easily get stuck due to carbon deposits, losing their oil-scraping function, which worsens the oil burning. Engine lubrication also becomes insufficient due to oil burning, leading to engine damage, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring or engine failure.
