Default Anyone with oil leaks?

Just did my first oil change this weekend at 2000 miles, and found that there was some oil on the plastic pan, and that the engine oil pan was damp with oil. I checked the garage floor, and found a very small amount of oil there. I cleaned everything up, couldn't find the source of the leak, and then drove it today. Just got home from work, pulled the plastic pan off, and everything is still dry.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Default Quart of oil every 1000 miles?

My car went to the dealer today to get the memory seat switch replaced. I also told them that my oil light had come on and ask them to check it out and makes sure everything was ok. I just talked to the service manager; He stated that they called Audi because they were concerned and Audi stated that a quart of oil every 1000 miles during break-in was not considered excessive and there are definitely no leaks.

Default Re: Oil or Cosmoline?

Mine appeared to be motor oil in color and texture.

Default Re: Quart of oil every 1000 miles?

My consumption prior to the oil change I did this weekend was around 1/2 quart in the 2000 miles I've traveled. I've been very careful to watch the level as I too was told that I might see as much as 1 quart used in 1000 miles.

Guess I'm lucky on that account.
