Don’t even bother touching any cars from 2009 to late 2011.

If you develop an engine oil issue, which is incredibly high, no warranty and complete engine rebuild to sort it.

Not worth the changing in my opinion!

edit: I owned a 2009 2.0 tfsi.... Audi WOULDNT even bother trying to resolve it...

this is rather un-nuanced.
I own an A5 2.0 TFSI MY2010, which developed the well-known oil-consumption.
after more than 10 years and 160.000 km Audi overhauled the engine, completely free of charge, including a courtesye ncar.
the key to this is: you must have a complete and full maintenance history.
and if you want to buy a used car of these years, you can always ask for proof of the engine being overhauled.

Personal experience. Also after the engine rebuild there’s still oil burning issues, albeit a lot less, but over my years of owning so many cars, they have never burned through any oil of that sort, not even close.

Apologies for revitalising an old post but I am currently in the midst of this issue and trying to get Audi to foot the bill but I am feeling a bit of a fight from Audi. Can you tell me which dealer you managed to get this car repaired? Any advice would help. Thanks

Your local Audi dealership is the best way, travelling hundreds of miles won't make a difference. You need a full audi service history and the initial oils consumption test done, then get the garage to raise the issue up with Audi UK or you go an call them. They may offer a large discount or maybe even foot the whole bill but if you search this forums it's mostly a hit but not always the whole bill.

But just to answer your question I got mine done at Audi Cheshire Oaks.

Push for them or donut yourself and call Audi UK if the car has full audi service then they're more inclined to help and give u discount!
