I purchased this vehicle on 10/16/2022 and the very next day took it back and informed them that it was leaking oil. It was repaired and from that point on it was telling me to add a quart of oil once every week. Was diagnosed by the Audi dealership of the pistons needing to be replaced and that my car fell under the lawsuit that has yet to be settled. Was told I could spend the 9k to fix the car and be reimbursed. Audi really needs to be fixing all vehicles with these issues. That is just insane to pay 9k to fix a vehicle when I just got it and have barely been able to drive it.

I have a 2013 Audi A4 2.0. I was driving home at night close to my home and the car started puttering and wouldn't go and I found out that the timing chain had "jumped" and caused sudden engine failure. I later found out that same issue is the subject of class action lawsuits for the second time around because Audi didn't properly take action after the first suit and repair the issue, which is apparently a major problem with my model and other class vehicles and instead continue to let people unknowingly buy and drive these cars.

2013 Audi A4 with a 2.0 turbo engine approximately 62.5K miles and up to date with all services. I was driving on the highway at highway speeds when the engine suddenly started to misfire with a partial loss of power making the car difficult to steer. At that time the check engine light was not illuminated. I was able to get off the highway and drive home about 2 miles away from when the misfires first occurred. The police did not get involved as I was able to return home. The following week the car was towed...

The car started losing power when stepping on the gas to go faster or up a ramp or merging into the freeway. I took my car to the mechanic I trust. He checked my car and stated it is losing power in the fourth cylinder. He did the spark plugs and other tests, I'm not good remembering the names. States he would need to do a rebuild or replacement of the engine. The car has only 87,000 miles. Doent make any sense.

The car has been burning through oil. It has been requesting a quart of oil be added just about every 500-700 miles. About a year ago the problem started in early 2019 and at first it was just every 1200-900 miles that the car would ask for an extra quart of oil. Then in the past 6 months it has gotten worse asking for a quart of oil every 500-700 miles; this is all in addition to the regularly schedule oil changes.

Engine at 39,600 miles. Had an oil change performed at 37,000 miles. Car threw rod into engine block resulting in total engine failure. Remedy is a new engine valued roughly at $4,000 and labor valued at $4,000 before taxes. Cause of failure has been unable to be determined by audi but there was sufficient oil. Vehicle was traveling straight at 65 mph on the freeway at time of incident.

Engine light came on. Car stopped running--was unable to start it. Audi dealership service identified it timing tensioner failure at just 70000 miles. Repair cost estimated at $3100. Recent class action settlement identifies this as a consistent problem with audi/vw but does not include my vin. However, this is identical issue as other audi under recall

Epc light illuminated, rough idling, loss of power, car will not turn on. 2017 It did the same thing, found electrical fault near gas tank (could have blown up). Audi fix at goodwill. Compression of engine was never checked. 2019 Same things happening, engine lost compression in 2 cylinders. All services done at audi. Told new engine $10k-13k and they will not help cover costs. Only 60'000 miles done on the car and no overheating issues ever.

Oil consumption issue, there is a class action lawsuit on 2.0 Audi's engine that cover 2009 to 2011, mine is a 2013 with same issue though. So obviously issue has not been resolved in further production. I am consuming 1.66 Quarts in 600 miles which has been documented by my local audi dealer. I was told call audi usa customer support to start claim. I did and was told they understand that my car has an issue but since it did not fall in the years of class action lawsuit they would not be able to assist in any...

You know of the issue I am writing about, as I received a letter from audi in june 2018 telling me about recall 19n4, the after run coolant pump. The letter said to park outside, not in a garage, until fixed. Kind scary. Will my car burst into flames? Audi did not have the part. I received a second letter in september 2018. Still no part. I received a third letter in january 2019. It is now february 2019 and still no part (although in january they performed a temporary fix recommended by audi. I am writing as I thought you should know how long this process is dragging out. It must be serious for my engine as well, as they also said they have extended the warranty.

While stopped at an intersection waiting to turn left across traffic, let off brake to accelerate while turning when the engine hesitated. Pressing the gas pedal at this moment resulted in minimal car movement placing my car in the path of oncoming traffic. I pressed the gas pedal more and the car finally over accelerated resulting in some loss of control in the turn. This is not the first time I have noticed engine hesitation from a stop. The same hesitation has occurred at four way stops and stop lights. The...
