Hello Everyone,

If you have an Audi or VW with the infamous 2.0 TFSI, or more specifically the CAEB engine and you are using oil, no specific amount just using oil, please contact me. I am in talks with a law office in Ottawa willing to open a Canada wide class action case against Audi Canada for Oil burning or consumption.

Audi of America has recently settled in a class action suit with our southern neighbours (USA) to the tune of over 23 million dollars. Even covering the cost of previous engine work done to Audi engines at Audi dealerships.

The issue, as many of you know, lies in the piston rings being incorrect from the factory. Audi has known this since 2008. It is a world wide problem
There is a new design for piston rings, pistons, and connecting rods for the CAEB engine.

If you have a CAEB 2.0 engine burning oil , 1 liter per 1000kms - give or take.
If you paid out of pocket for the oil consumption test part 1 or 2 you could also be reimbursed. Please contact me through audi forum.ca, if you want more info.

I have many links as well as the legal documents for the case that closed this past October 2014.

I am helping the law office build a plaintiff list. This is a class action suit with hundred or potentially thousands of plaintiffs, there will be no upfront cost to anyone, just information sent to the law office, not to me.
To fins out if your engine is the CAEB you can call your local dealer with your VIN#.

I will happily pass you the information of the law office, or vice versa, I am happy to act as a middle man.
Many of us have been living with this problem for far too long. We paid a premium for the Audi name and its heritage and its far time Audi correct this issue.


If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi,
I just bought an Audi Q5 2011 a week ago (114000Km), Engine code is CAEB.
How do I monitor oil consumption.
Thank you.

Make sure your oil is topped up to full. Drive 500kms use MMI to get a reading on oil level, then drive another 500kms <1000kms total> and take another reading.

Thank you.
There should be more people here in this section. Every Audi out there has terrible black exhausts pipes. Have a look on the road. I also see BMW's and VW's with unbelivable black exhaust pipes.

I agree - perhaps people are hesitant for some reason.
I am trying to do is get some feedback from others on some Canadian Forums.

You would think that the chance of getting over $6,000 of work paid for, or being reimbursed for previous work would be enough incentive.

Anyway - thank you for sharing. I will be in touch as more info comes my way.
Thanks
Nick

Hi,
I measured the oil level with a hand made dipstick from a flexible wire, and with the MMI, right after the oil change at 115.000 Km (see above posts). I drove since ~1000Km, and I measure the level again. The level on both indicators MMI/dipstick, seemed that did not dorpped at all.
The oil is already dirty and exhaust pipe is black-smoky as WV BMW and Audi's have.

Looks like I got lucky with the oil issue.

Hi,
After 1000K or so , not a drop in oil level on dipstick, neither on MMI.

I keep monitoring the oil though.
