- Please watch entire video, there are 2 different kind of oil consumption in your vehicle, factory warranty recall, and traditional oil consumption, both are very different, this video will explain how to fix them both, and give you real results/ note the dealership has extended the recall to 100k vs. 80k. Talk to Audi word prior to calling the dealership if you still are facing the irregular oil issue. Note I’m not an expert I just love sharing knowledge. God bless, and happy new year.

#AUDI #OIL CONSUMPTION #FIX
I knew about Lucas oil but was nervous to use it until this video. I literally had to buy two (2) jugs of oil for every oil change. I HAD this issue in my 2012 A4. I only added 1/4 of a Lucas oil and not only did it slow down the burn, I also got an extra 100 miles out of my total range (was getting only 430 miles of highway driving, now I'm averaging 550/560 and 400 miles city) the throttle response has even improved. Still burning a little oil, but it's day and night. I saw the MAF sensor vid and will try that next, but I had to leave a comment under this one. Keep going Bruce⚡🔥⚡🔥🤘🏿
Most definitely brother let me know, and I’m here for anything you need 🤜🏽🤜🏽🤜🏽✌️✌️
How much lucus do you use per oil change?
I am glad that has worked for you. My Q5 is averaging a quart every 460 miles. I just had the LiquiMoly flush and step up in viscosity to 5W-50 LM. No change in consumption noted. My next step is draining the oil, dosing seafoam into the cylinders and rotating it occasionally for a day or more, then doing the LM flush again.
omg my A5 is starting to go thru about a quart every 500 miles also.
What year are your cars?
@@carlosjones5451 2014...it goes through a quart a month
@@jfloyo11 my man, replace your pcv!
So two months ago I bought an 2011 Audi A4, and wasn't aware of the oil consumption issue prior to buying this vehicle. I use it as an everyday driver to get to my college campus, so I'm driving it a LOT (bought it at 85k miles and have put 3k on it). I noticed early on that I was burning oil, contacted Audi with no luck, and have gotten a few quotes from mechanics regarding the piston ring replacement ($5,000, nope!). I realize now that this car ultimately wasn't a good purchase, however, I think I am capable of making it work for the time being. I'm going to change the oil next week and try this method, and also use some engine flush/Ceratec. It is smart to add both Ceratec and Lucas oil? I really enjoy driving this vehicle, I might replace the pistons and rings later on, but for the time being, I guess I will try to limit the amount of oil I am burning. Is this combination of oil stabilizers (Ceratec/Lucas Oil) a good take? Or should I just use Lucas Oil and give it a go? thanks for the upload!
I would just stick with the stabilizer, do it with an oil change, so you can have the correct amount, it works better win it’s added from the jump, and you’ll be fine don’t rush to spend money
Zachary, there is a settlement oil consumption issue..I had Audi replace the piston and rings for free if you are under 100k.
Adrian, I tried contacting three local Audi dealers, as well as AOA, and I was given the same response each time, which is that they wouldn’t cover the cost. I didn’t purchase my B8 from audi itself, rather from a used car dealership. If you got your rings replaced for free, could you please tell me exactly how you managed to get Audi to do a $5,000 job free of charge? Apparently the class action settlement is void after 80k miles. I’m sitting at 90,242 atm. LMK!!!
@@zacharyclark5374 Did you call Audi? The class action was 100k before...I called Audi and argue with them several times ...also make sure you replace the timing belt chain tensioner as well ...that is another issue with those cars and there is another 5k job btw I bought mine from a used car dealership as well. The dealers know this issue all the way and they have a program that I don't remember now. Good luck
Dont worry about it bro Just keep burning that oil lol
Thanks for this! I bought an Audi Q5 2014 then found out it had an older engine. Seems like my "oil low" light comes on every couple of months. I'm going to try this out!

So glad that the oil consumption on my 2005 BMW was down to valve stem seals and the PCV membrane! I changed those components (which was labor intensive, but cheap DIY)! Dealing with piston rings is a nightmare! God bless mate!
Sir, you are a bless for me. I’m going to try that right now . Once again thank you for taking your time to share your experience.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏my pleasure god bless
I second this
How is it going with the Lucas oil?
I just recently tried and it and man this works wonders thank you so much I love your videos they have been so helpful
I bought a 3.0t with over 100k miles. First oil change it burned through a quart in 2500 miles. By my next oil change oil consumptions seems to have stopped.
I used Mobil 1 European Formula. Just saying. It stopped burning oil using Mobil 1.
3.0t are strong engines, one of Audis best, I would say the coil was to thin, or old previously , or wrong grade, 3.0t generally, don't have burning issues, that often. and yeh mobile one is really good.
@@brucecustommotorsI have the a6 3.0t tfsi 2019 and just noticed that burned 3qt in les than 2k miles 😬
Hi, I’m so looking into getting a q5 anywhere from 2012-2014 I keep hearing about this oil consumption and timing chain issues though, but this video helps alot! I’m still in the hunt for one!
I have a Audi 2013 q5 for sale if ya want serviced thru dealership
I use it just now on my audi a5 coupe 2011 i hope its works!! I will update here in next weeks .. i just top up my audi it had oil change 2000km ago
Update?
So?
I tried everything to slow down the oil burning. Replaced turbo, valve guides and PCV, still burning. Went from 1 quart every 300 miles to 600 miles a quart. If your car burns 1 quart every 300 miles nothing will help except a engine rebuild.
Mine went as far as 1L every 250 Miles... Had to rebuild it aswel
Yeh me too, but if you notice in the video audi says that it is normal , even in your owners manual.for 1 quart per 620-to 1k miles. Trust me I have a tuned car, and this is the only thing that worked for me, try it out, its just 9 bucks, worth the try. I also have been using it for 3 years , and my car runs better. im on 120,000 miles now. cheers god bless. but if its the piston ring warranty issue, I feel you hopefully enough people did the warranty, before it was to late
it worked for me I was hesitant at first, but said what the hell, you should try it bro Lucas got a entire channel dedicated to this product
@@cOnejittOpLayboY yeh guess you fell under the warranty oil consumptions, how many miles did you have curious
@@brucecustommotors Broke motor (no more oil pressure, chain jumped off) at 132.000km. Did a complet rebuild and tuned after 3000km
Ive been uses Lucas for 3 years now, and I'm 145,000 miles now, dose not even feel like I have any oil consumption issues. I feel like this is the only one that doesn't make your oil to thick, great right up
I used liqui molly for the lifters in my mercedes benz V8, V6 and VW passat CC V6 and improve a lot the oil consumption. In the V8 and V6 VW it stops the oil consumption. Originally it was 750ml/ 8000km. But after the liqui molly for lifters it stops completelly. It really works!
Thanks brother 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great Job on the Lucas Video I am going to buy that tomorrow. Love your approach. God Bless you.

Did it help?
I've got a tuned 2016 SQ5 and i'm getting 'low oil' warnings the week of my routine oil changes. almost 97k mi, i'm going to start doing this. Thanks.
Yes I have a 2019 q5 and it helps amazing
There's a synthetic lucas oil stabilizer. I get it at O'reilly's
man yeh forgot to mention it, thanks for the reminder. I use that one for my b9 2019 audi, I use the one in this video for my b8 because of the higher miles,
My 2012 A4 failed the oil consumption test. My car started consuming oil at around 45k. The dealer agreed to pay 50% of the cost for valves, pistons and timing chain. Motor rebuild was done 5k miles ago, it currently has 60k miles. Problem seems to have been addressed.
Amen, happy to hear, that’s why I make these videos to bring awareness to old and new issues, and how to take proactive steps god bless bro💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
How were you able to get them to pay 50%? I have 55k miles on mine
@@brucecustommotors that’s good news I got a 2011 Audi Q5 2.0 with 74,160 miles and it’s burning oil. How can I ask the dealer to pay for cost of piston replacement job?
what was total cost for rhe repair you did?
@@timpresutto184 total cost at the time Audi replaced pistons and rings were $3500 from me. However motor failed 10k after pistons and rings replaced. I paid $12,000 for a new long block to be installed 30 days ago.

So mad I didn’t see this video before I sold my Q5!!
You did the right thing ! Cause it’s only gonna get worse. Oil can’t fix no piston ring, just giving you a few more extra days till it run out again. I don’t know you but “that’s the best decision you made in your life” lmao. Audi is a headache smh
You are right but you must to use Lucas 10130 Synthetic Oil Stabilizer.............needs Synthetic cause you use Synthetic oil.
Thank you sir.. I will definitely buy this.. I have a 2.0t

Is it safe to just switch to a thicker oil? Changing the oil filter and doing a service to the car first
Gonna try it on my 2013 Audi Q7 supercharged. Mines burns down to 1 quart after 800 to 1100 miles
it should help let me know how it goes

hi my audi a4 2.0tfsi quattro 2011 requires oil every 200miles and it has done only 44000miles. some recommended me to add stp (stop leak oil) it didn't work. your advice will be much appreciated.
This will help you tremendously, also you may be under warranty , call Audi to make sure your car is not effected by the warranty claim th-cam.com/video/itQIFUf0U7M/w-d-xo.html
How was the results?
i have an audi a4 2008 2.0t I changed the oil after 1800 km Light for oil turns on,should use this with any kind of oil brand.
Makes sure it’s synthetic and 5 w40
My Audi a4 2013 automatic transmission is using a lil bit oil. Depends on how i drive as in : if i drive alot in Sport and above 4k rpm it seems its using oil alot faster. But like 0,5 lt on 3000km
But when i drive 'slow' the oil consumption is way less.
Do you think this product will help?
Yes 100%
Got a question. I bought an Audi s5 three no the ago it got 76000 miles on a clock. The service was done at 68500 miles but the service inspection light comes on. Shall I go for an Oil Service?
no the service light is just a reminder, to check
.air filter
.all your fluids
.belts
kind of like a physical for a human. Sometimes you may service it and every things is still good, depending on how you drive the car, it generally comes on in 60,000 mile increments , so your next one will be around 120,000. unfortunately, only the dealer can reset it or you can use vag or an obdelevn, this video will explain how you can do it yourself, but of course you don't want to overlook your service if you reset it.
th-cam.com/video/AMjmDkPjJtM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, Bruce. You are indeed very helpful. Basically the service was done in 2018 and the car was really driven only covered 6000 miles and hence the light comes on for service inspection. What I am thinking is to get just the oil changed for peace of mind and will use the Eleven to reset the inspection light.
Glad t find your TH-cam as there bot very much genuine ppl left out there who advice you good. So Bless you and will wait for more vid. As I am quite new to S5 need to learn a lot.

Good day Bruce, I’ve been experiencing a faulty hood sensor switch on a 2011Audi Q5 3.2 L
And the tailgate sensor switch) it’s my understanding that both switches work together
I changed the tailgate sensor switch and the display on the dash is showing it’s still open
And for the hood sensor, the 1st time I removed it and cleaned the contacts because I was getting a false reading that the oil level was low when it wasn’t as well as the No display when the hood was actually open have you experienced this problem ?
Should we use the high mileage Lucas stabilizer or the original? I’m at 106k on my 2015 A4 currently
if you have 75,000 plus I would use high mileage, it also helps with blow bye

I wish it were that simple. To fix your Audi oil consumption properly requires ring and piston replacement. Which I had completed by Audi at 55k miles two years ago. Fast forward 18 months later, cylinder #1 failed. The techs at Audi said they were replacing long blocks because the ring and piston replacement is a temporary fix. Another 12k bill from Audi. However at 69k, I now have a new Audi engine in my Avant.

@@enzok7953 Yes. Definitely helps slow down the oil consumption. I was going through a litre every 200-300 KM. Now I’m closer to 1000km.
@@kennynketia1085 that’s great! I made 600km with new oil change oil gage showing low . I gotta try that stuff
@@kennynketia1085 hey any news from this car, is the engine still okay? let me know thanks in advance! :)
Hey, so I called Audi asking about the oil consumption on my A5. They said the recall was done in 2018. Any word if there a recent recall or something done?
I pretty sure they still might have a warranty out, can’t promise it, but one of the most common issues is piston rings. Def try this hack out, but if you can get the car serviced.
its based on miles not year, most dealerships don't want to do the free work so they throw road blocks, what the best thing to do is call audi world customer service, and create a claim first and then pick the dealership you would like, that way it would not be any politics
@@brucecustommotors oh I just remember seeing a recall saying that Audis from 09-11 have this recall due to the newer ones “being updated” as Audi says which is bull. Never thought it was based on miles?🤔
update: Audi didn’t take care of it, I’m burning through 1 quart per every 1000km or roughly ever 500 miles in the city. I’m gonna give this a try now that I need to get an oil change. Otherwise we might just need to do a motor swap, do you know if the s5 motor is a direct swap assuming we change the ecu
@@abdielmi1087 noooo, don’t do an engine swap, do a rebuild. I see so many youtubers even, swapping these engine that have 50k and their engines that had 70k on it with a timing stretch and rings problem. It’s just a time bomb waiting to go off, best thing to do is a full rebuild
Hey guys, question out of left field but I have a add 1 quart warning but on my dipstick it says max, and in the car it says max but im still getting the warning and I've replaced the oil level sensor, any tips?
You have a dipstick? Lucky man
@@BrandonP43 I do, dipstick says full, car sensor says full but still telling me to add a quart lol its so weird
how much LUCAS do i need when im doing an oil change? and do i just put it in after filling oil?
Just replace it with 1 quart of your normal oil
@@brucecustommotors have an a5 2.0tfsi 2009, how much do i need to buy? having an oil change soon
@@Voqezify he just said lol, so if you car takes 5 quarts put 4 qts oil 1 qt Lucas
@@Moocow444 dont know how many litres it takes, thats why i asked
Why you don't use 5w30 because this is recommended by Audi
5w40
@@Moocow444 5w30 is recommended by AUDI !
🙏🙏🙏🙏
@Trifon Passalis yes but i change it every 10.000 km
Just get a Japanese or Korean car and you won't have a problem 👍 (and for a lot less money!)
lol feel ya,
and I love your name
@@brucecustommotors Cheers mate👍
L Korean lol
You clearly havent driven an audi man its such an experience it makes it a little closer to kinda worth the money
You can't fix worn rings with a bottle
Facts
Are you putting in a lighter oil to make up for the thickness of the stablizer so it’s not too think? Or you still using the factory recommended oil + stabilizer? 🙏🏾🙏🏾
no 5w-40 recommended
So how much lucas per Liter oil should i use? ^^ help me out plz
Just replace it with one quart
@@brucecustommotors for me that know the pound quart and so on in English.. how much is 1 quart in liters? 1l, 0.5l...? Thanks on forehand
@@brucecustommotors oh ok.. so on a 5l oil chance i taket 4l oil and 1l of this Lucas? =5l?
Hola bruce!! Necesito encontrar un oíl catch can y el de tu enlace ya no existe sabes donde puedo conseguir uno??? Gracias de antemano y saludos desde Chile!!

Lol I've tried everything let's see how this goes.
Yeh , me too, this truly helped me , if you look at the oil change I did , at the end I almost had 5 quarts, and that was almost 4,000 miles
@@brucecustommotors bro my quart gone in 300miles. Hopefully get 700 outta it. Cilinder 3/4 rings are pretty rough but drives fine and been dealing with the issue for 2 years and 2 rebuilds😭
@@vagcentral2252 omg I know the feeling, that’s what drove me here
@@brucecustommotors I have tried it and nothing has changed sadly. I'm guessing when the bottom end was done two piston ring scrappers were flipped so the oil gets dragged into the combustion chamber . Was burning around a quart every 2k after the rebuild and now it's around 160 miles. I think as the rings wore in the consumption grew.
I’m having same issue with my Audi. Do you guys recommend me using this oil stabiliser??? Will it effect the engine in a bad way?
So far so good for me
Thank you so much for the reply. Just wanted to know How much stabiliser should I add when topping one litre of oil as it’s my first time…?
2012
I wish this quick fix would have worked for the oil consumption issue on my 2012 A4. My rings and pistons were replaced by Audi two years ago when my car had 57K. The car now has 67k miles,. After heavy acceleration the car developed a knock near the front of the motor. Was told cylinder number one is scored, and I needed a new motor. Doubting their analysis I had the car diagnosed at Audi, same answer. Do you think if the connecting rods were originally replaced with the pistons and rings that I would still be dealing with this issue?
possible, did you have an update
Audi realized replacing the pistons and rings would be a temporary fix regarding oil consumption. They are now recommending entire engine replacement.
I got a 2013 Q5 2.0t that looses more oil than my 2012 A4 2.0t.
Same as me lol
Just get a new car or replace the engine. I had Audi A4 for 10 years it’s only gonna get worse and you’ll have you gut out your catalytic converter cause oil is clogging it allowing you to lose power and performance
