Audi 2.0 FSI oil consumption
Currently Audi is having an oil consumption situation with their 2.0 Fsi motors. There was a piston ring update mid 2006 that resolves an issue with the piston rings losing temper and no longer having outward pressure against the cylinders. Now they are trying different pistons even though it appears that the issue is a build up of oil deposits in the piston ring lands and the oil control ring holes. Audi has also implemented a current service action on the crankcase vent valve and the turbo pipe has been revised. These motors would benefit greatly from a BG 109 oil flush to soften and disperse the oil deposits then follow up with MOA to keep the deposits from building up again. If done every 5k miles the engine would qualify for a lifetime protection plan. These pistons only have 26k miles on them and if the customer was current and on time for all services they would have just received the 3rd oil change. It's possible that deposits could be build up like this after just 2 oil changes.
