Is the Audi A6 prone to severe oil burning?
1 Answers
Audi A6's oil burning issue depends on driving conditions. Valve factors: Worn or aged valve seals and valves can severely affect valve sealing performance, making oil burning more likely to occur. Piston factors: Excessive piston clearance leads to carbon buildup after driving. If not cleaned regularly, it may enlarge the gap between piston rings and cylinder walls, allowing oil to enter the combustion chamber and cause oil burning. Solutions: Regularly change engine oil, purchase high-quality oil, periodically clean carbon deposits on pistons, and maintain normal engine operation.
