general problems of the 2011 Audi A4

Engine oil consumption, timing chain. This is a massive problem among Audi vehicles across the board. Engine oil consumption is abnormal and if unnoticed leads to engine dying in the middle of the road which is dangerous and I’ve personally had this happen to me on multiple occasions. The engines timing chain goes bad and causes the entire engine to need to be replaced which consumers have to pay for out of pocket. Damage from timing chain, rough idle, sluggish engine performance, rattling, engine failure. There are large amounts of consumers experiencing the exact same issues. Something needs to be done it’s not safe at all and Audi should be held responsible and liable to fix these issues. The engines are deteriorating at an abnormal and accelerated rate.

So there have already been recalls on some Audis for oil consumption. I have a 2011 Audi A4 quattro and it goes through oil like crazy. It's ridiculous I believe it's because of faulty piston rings which led to faulty head gasket witch leads to the spark plugs, and coils.

Vehicle has horrible oil consumption due to piston rings being defective upon manufacture. Vehicle will have slew of problems, including stopping in the middle of the street, risking the lives of everyone in the car. Audi dealer knows of the problem with the model from this year (b8) and they refuse to fix.

Apparently Audi had. Are all for this car because of a bad cylinder state forced Audi to do a recall on the car I just payed 7k for this car and the cylinder is bad Audi doesn't wanna help me unless I pay but it's an issue straight from Audi which is not fair of Audi to do that to their customers even if I didn't buy the car from Audi it is still a problem from their end even the government forced them to do the recall but the time frame of the recall is over now and I don't know what I can do do I just lose 7k down the drain.

The contact owns a 2011 Audi A4. The contact stated she would need to add 1 quart of oil frequently to the vehicle. The contact stated the oil warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to local dealer and had the oil consumption test completed twice, but was not able to diagnose the failure. The contact stated she continued to add 1 quart of oil frequently but the failure started to progress. The contact stated the oil pressure warning light was illuminated and the turn off the engine warning message. The contact took the vehicle to local dealer and had unknown sensor replaced. The vehicle was repaired but continue to experience the failure. The contact also stated on 12/8/202, while making a left turn, the engine seized. The contact was able to restart the ignition and drive to her destination. The contact attempted to call the manufacturer but was unable to speak to anyone. The failure mileage was unknown.

Follow up to complaint 10852082. Once again my car lost all power including power steering, this time in the middle of multiple lanes of fast moving traffic. After the first two times, the defect was not identified by the dealer. This time, as I brought the car in right away, the computer detected that the issue was due to faulty camshaft position sensor circuits. They have been replaced and hopefully my car will now be fine. So here are the questions. Is this really what caused the vehicle to cease functioning three times? if so, how many of these faulty cps sensors are out there? it is just a fluke or do they wear out or is it a bad batch? should there be a sensor that will stop all power with no warning? this last incident happened on the entrance ramp to fort lauderdale airport where about 6 lanes of traffic comes around a curve and decelerates from 55mph to 25 as cars approach the terminals and parking. The speed limit is 45 going down to 15 but people are moving pretty fast. I wrestled the car over as other cars were struggling to avoid me. Once I had the car stopped, I removed the electronic key, reinserted and the car started back up fine.

I own a 2011 Audi A4. I purchased the car in 2013. It was okay with oil for a year but after that I noticed it would need oil more often than before. I took it to the dealership every time it needed oil, which was around 900 miles driven, and the dealer told us it was normal. As of today I am putting one quart of engine oil every 500 city miles. I think it is using way too much oil.
