Mine has passed the warranty limitations as well. The day I bought the car, I left the dealership and the low oil light came on so I went back and they added some oil. He told me that the car did have an oil burning issue previously with the 2.0 engine and he said that many things were now brand new in the engine, including new piston rings due to a recall repair that they had just performed. I'm heading to my dealership today to pick up a new bluetooth mod so I will enquire more about that when I'm there.

Here is what I would suggest you do. Since Audi Canada knows about the issue and wants to play dirty with its customer base, you can play just as dirty.

You would go to the dealership and have them take the inial test in which they fill your engine up with oil till its full.
What you do next is before your car hit the 1000km (preferrably between 800km and 900km mark) mark
You drain exactly enough oil to make it a 1L deficit (you will need to lift the car and unscrew the oil pan drain plug), enough so that the min. oil message appears on the MMI
After draining the oil make sure you clean the oil pan well so it doesnt seem like you did it yourself, and give it some time to dry
Take it back to the dealership and let them do the rest (they will confirm that the oil consumption is too high and will schedule the rebuild)

Your Welcome!

So I was in my dealership on Friday having my proximity door locks replaced and I asked them about this recall that the parts guy had told me about for the oil consumption issue. They told me that it wasn't a recall but what Audi did was extend the warranty for another two years to fix any cars that came in with an oil consumption problem. Mine car was one of those. I bought my car, used from Audi one month ago today, and I asked them if they could print out all the work that was done when the car was traded in to them prior to me buying it. I was shocked at all the work they did under this new warranty. They removed the engine, replaced the pistons, rings, heads, spark plugs, timing chain, etc... the list goes on and on. The service advisor said that the car had almost $10000 worth of work done and that the engine, except for the block itself was pretty much all brand new.

I'm thinking that if my 2010 with 124000kms on it could get all this work done for free under this new Audi warranty extension (that everyone with the 2.0 received apparently), why not everyone else?? Am I missing something?!?

I found out that if you cannot find oil change documents for even few changes they will not honour the warranty.Audi Canada really needs to realize their reputation is going pulled thru the mud because they wont admit there is a manufacture issue and just do a recall on the problem parts.No more Audis for me.Doesnt surprise me with the VW fiasco,same dirty company.
