Sweeney Answers: "I have experienced this with my first TT(180hpQ). But it was usually between 5k-10k miles following last oil change. Cases like this are likely to occur if the car is beat up a lot, e.g. street racing, heavy traffic conditions, etc. If you haven't noticed oil spots in your garage, and you don't notice blue smoke while excellerating, (it would be noticable) it's likely the choice of oil (too thin). Stick with 20/50. "

Seizo adds: "I have a 2001 225 quattro roadster and it does consume oil. I have had to top it up 3 to 4 times in the 2.5 years I've owned it."

Marci adds: "I bought a 2002 225 Quattro Roadster from the dealer (his son drove it for first 2000 miles) I have had to add 1 quart of oil every 2000-2500 miles. After 3 times to the dealer they told me the camshaft seal was leaking. It stopped doing it for approx 6 months before it started up again. They told me it was normal but I find it hard to believe that i have to carry around a quart of oil in my trunk after buying this caliber of a vehicle." - 4/7/04

Mason adds "I am not a member but I would think this information would help many Audi TT owners. I bought a used 2001 Audi TT Quattro 225 hp in June, 2004. Every 1000 miles I had to add one quart of oil and it made me so mad. Luckily my wife's younger brother who is a ASE Master mechanic diagnosed the problem and found out the cause. It was the TURBO CHARGER system eating up the oil.

Through my extended warranty program he replaced it with a brand new TURBO CHARGER and there seems to be no oil burning at all after driving it for 400 miles. I'll find out more when the mileage reaches 1000 or 2000. I promise to feed more information in a near future regarding this problem." - 1/15/2005

Mason adds "I'll take back the comments I made back in Jan 15th. The oil burning continues to happen even after replacing the Turbo Charger. Every 1000 miles I've got to add one quart of synthetic oil. I am so frustrated. Anyone's comment on why it's happenning would be a great help." 2/20/2005

Joe adds " Hi All as far as I'm aware consuming oil every 1000 miles is normal - It says it in the manual (european). I have an Audi TT Coupe 180 2000 and my guys say it is the Turbo and normal so I just live with it ..." 8/12/2006
