2008 Audi A4 Quattro review from North America
"Inferior workmanship"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My 2008 Audi A4 burns oil at a rate of 1 quart per 1000 miles. The oil level warning came on at 6000, 10000 and 14000 miles.
Each time I had it checked at the Audi dealer where it was purchased, and was told each time that no leaks were found and that it was operating normally. They also measured the aforementioned burn off rate and informed me that it was "well within Audi specifications."
So I'm stuck with an Audi that has a problematic engine that forces me to keep a watchful eye on the oil level in order to avoid a catastrophe which should never be a concern.
General comments?
If not for this problem, I would love the car.
