A second oil consumption test was performed, and the car failed a second time. Audi is now offering a new engine. I'm aware of a bad batch of piston rings that have plagued the 2009-2011 models but can't seem to find independent information about any changes made to the engine to make me feel confident that I won't have to deal with the excessive oil consumption again. I'd appreciate any links/information. Thanks.
You will be getting the updated engine.
Well long block anyways, pretty much everything new. You will not have any oil consumption issue after that, that's almost guaranteed.
