    Why is my A5 using so much oil and what can I do about it?
    Answered by Graham Smith · 22 September 2016

    I don't think there's much that can be done, apart from paying up and having the test done. The car is a 2009 model and I doubt that you would get any joy out of Audi regarding the cost of the test. VWs and Audis are renowned for using some oil, and that's one of the risks of buying a used one. What you need to know is how much oil it is using, and if that is a problem.

    Seized engine repairs for A5
    Answered by Graham Smith · 20 November 2015

    Engines don't just seize for no reason, so find out what caused it to seize. Did it run out of oil? Perhaps overheated? VW/Audi engines are known to use some oil, some more than others, which makes it important to check the oil level in the engine regularly and keep it topped up if needed. If it needs a new engine, than that's what you have to do.

    2009 Audi A5 excess oil usage
    Answered by Paul Gover · 28 September 2015

    If you car is like Gay's you probably have a case. No surprise that when I approached Audi Australia the company agreed to conduct and cover all costs for an oil consumption test. If the excessive oil consumption is in fact caused by a manufacturer fault, Audi will cover parts and labour cost.
