    Can anyone recommend a good mechanic/shop in North Jersey/Bergen county NJ.

    I have a 2007 A4 2.0t automatic (not quatro) with 35k miles. I purchased from a private seller back in 2011.
    Lately it is consuming a quart of oil in just 700 miles.
    In addition, the quick acceleration is missing when I floor the pedal.
    I would like to get this looked at and fixed.

    I have heard about the oil consumption issue. From 2011 thru 2015 I drove the car only on weekdays. Since I do an oil change every 6 months (regardless of mileage), I only had to add oil 2 or 3 times.
    Since June 2016 I drive the car to work daily (approx. 15 miles each way - 10 highway, 5 local). The oil consumption is now ridiculous.

    I'm looking for a good mechanic that understands Audis. Also one that is reasonably priced.

    Thank you in advance,
    Jojo

    Either drive auto works in Clifton or there was another place in Mahwah that was highly recommended.

    Oil consumption in these cars is pretty well known. Yours seems a bit much. Oddly enough, when I switched to liquimoly my consumption issues stopped entirely.

    Fdny5772 - I will try Liqui moly and see if this works - any suggestion on weight, 5w30 perhaps?

    If my oil consumption is still ridiculous after this switch, My next stop is drive auto works in clifton.
