mate it depends.. on the previous series Audi A6, 2.0T, owners had to top up 1 litre oil every few months as that was the inherent nature of the vehicle.. call your car dealer/workshop and check with them for further information.

I read from the manual the engine will consume 0.8l for every 1000km. I just got my ride a 3 year old C180k. I got my friend to check the car before I collected the car. He told me the engine oil was just above min and was very dirty. But the car was due for service. I have since sent to c&c and no issue so far but worried lah haha first time drive conti car...

Thanks bro. I am enjoying the ride so far except when after washing the car it rain the next minute. And wow a lot of brake dust compared to my previous ride even the wrx.

[Guest io5885]

Now rainy season til Jan 2012, bo bian Bro.

Got wash, better than no wash.

Imagine all the dirt n dust stick stronger to the car body after the rain?? :doh:

Well, wat i can suggest as a lesser pain is to wax ur ride gao gao then wipe dry after u parked

OR speed up n let the rain drop off by itself.

Rem the new i45 advertisement some time back? power AD.

As for brake dust,

i used to wipe every alternate day when on stock rims.

Now chain to dark colored lim,

one week wipe one time nia. :wink:

PS: Can u feel my poison flowing in u?? :lol:

BTW, lots of poison masters ard here. Never fail to be-brother them.. :bounce:
