I have nearly 5000 miles on my A4 now and it is still appears to be using oil at a rate of around 1 quart per 2500 miles. Audi consider this normal however I have never before owned a car with such a thirst for oil and am struggling to come to terms with it.
I have read many articles about how to best run in an engine to achieve the best piston ring sealing. In my case, I have more or less followed what it says in the book and certainly have not 'babied' the car. My daily journeys are urban with a good mix of driving conditions.
I'm interested to hear from anyone whom has has a similar experience - does the oil usage eventually stop? Incedentally my car has the Castrol SLX longlife oil in from new - maybe why it seems to be taking it's time bedding in.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
