Description of the problem | My concern is that this car barely had 115,000 miles on it and i'm now dealing with a major oil consumption where i"m at the dealership almost once a month. My concern, is that i'm on the open highway and the car tells me to immediately park the car because the oil is too low, right after getting it topped off weeks before. This was a hazard for me be alone on the road. I notice other complaints about this issue. Is there anything audi is considering doing about it? These cars aren't cheap and should not be an issue, causing owners to either pay $9,000+ or get a new car. Even now, i'm still having to frequent the dealership for top offs due to the oil consumption concern. |
