2013 Audi A4 Allroad Engine Problems

“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 matter. …”

“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.

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 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. …”

“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”

“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.”
