sorry for my bad English but I'm not a native speaker, now I don't know the problem with this engine but mine was eating oil at an incredible speed. To resolve this I soaked the pistons in white spirit. I removed the spark plug, put white spirit in it and ran the engine again without spark plugs, topped it up and left it for 24 hours, I ran the engine and topped it up again, this was done for 3 days after 24 hours. I eliminated the white spirit as much as possible, idling the engine and blowing the compressor. Then put in the spark plugs and started. Obviously the start was very difficult... After the smoke from the exhaust and a few cylinder misfiring errors, everything went fine. At this point I flushed the engine oil and changed the oil and filter. Today I only need to top up once for each service. I know this procedure is a bit risky but I didn't like the idea of opening the engine so I preferred to do it this way.
I had the same symptoms on my 2006 high mileage BMW 316i. I went through a litre of oil every 800km… I changed the valve stem seals, and the car no longer consumes oil or spits out oil/water through the exhaust. Changing the stem seals is a pain though, but worth it and after a while you’ll forget the hardship and the pain of doing the job😂
@@megalodononwheels Yeah! I tried the rubber rejuvenating stuff, but on old cars the rubber is far too gone... If it's the piston rings there's not much you can do, besides a full engine rebuild. Changing the valve stem seals is dirt cheap, but is very labour intensive! I did the job for about 150 USD (a cheap timing tool from the Far East included). But you should check if Audis have valve stem seal or piston ring problems. On the Bimmers it's usually the valve stem seals, not sure about the Audis.
my car is 2012 Audi Q5 2.0t, I have changed to warmer spark plug from Denso IK22 to IK20, it seems more efficient in daily driving! (I found the factory OEM spark plug setting is too cold..
@@megalodononwheels over time you will have serious damage to valves and pistons! you also have to evaluate the color of the candles during their operation... They should be hazelnut in color.
Unfortunately... yes... I still do. Much less but it looks like the longer it runs in the car the more it fades. Please note I did install a Oil catch can with the PCV and then also my top timing cover leaked ao I had some other leaks but they are sorted now. I will have to monitor again
I bought it maybe 3 years ago 😭 I wished I still had it. Even my friends locally asked me and I couldn't help. Maybe I must look on the Dipstick, hopefully it Might have it but I doubt 🙆♂️
I am no expert when it comes to how many different additives you can add at once 😂 the info I will give you might be completely off the chart 😂 I would reccomend to rather get in contact with Liqui Molly them self and find out from them 💪 Search Liqui Molly and your area and you might find a distributor locally that can help 🙌
It has been over 2 months, probably approaching 3 months... I am still super happy, the oil consumption is very low. Yes it still uses oil but a fraction of what it did... Maybe 10% of what it used to consume. I am not sure how much km I have done but I usually do a 1000km a month at most, so say about 2500 to 3000 since I did it...
And what was your oil consumption about before the treatment, did the flush affect it at all or only this? I have about 1l/1000km and very little smoke
I removed my Catalytic converter so I do experience a small smell under Wide open Throttle (WOT) but for day to day driving, havent seen or smelled smoke again. Really rock solid and I can not Imagine changing my oil on my A4 again without adding the Liqui Molly Products.
Unfortunately I will be the wrong one to ask 😂 What you can do is search Liqui Molly (and your location such as USA or UK and ect) then look for contact details and just ask them. Because I never shopped for something like that and used it I am clueless lll
I would say look at the results after an oil change. If it smokes then add the additives. If it doesn't smoke then your good till maybe the next oil change 🙌👌
That's the only stuff I've found to work. And it does work. You have to leave it in all the time, or the smoking returns withn an hour of engine operation.
Thanks man! I feel the same about these. Its like as soon as it has been in the car for some time also wears off and starts smoking little bit by little bit more
I have Audi A4 2.0Tfsi B8 2008. which take 4.6 liter engine oil. Is it safe to use 3 additives during the oil change I want to add (Oil additive + visco stable 300ml + oil saver 300ml )
To be honnest, I don't think it will be a major concern, the only thing that bothers me is the fact that lets say all 3 is 300ml that is 900ml of additives and 900ml of less oil. So its 3.7L of oil and that is quite alot less than normal. I would say rather add maybe 4L of oil and use 200ml of each and then if you need to top up, use the addatives first then. Just a suggestion :) but maybe trying to reach out to Liqui Moly will help you more with some proper awnsers
Unfortunately that is not the case 💔 The turbo has been reconned not long ago and I have all the tests that has been performed on it to show it passed. These cars are known for this problem

Ohhhh thanks for the heads up! I will go do some reaserch on the symptoms of bad valve stem seals! Lets hope it is that 🙌🤣

Audi it is usually the piston rings sadly 💔 and every second A4 B8 had a motor rebuild
@@megalodononwheels 😥 sorry to hear that
Very instructive ! Well done ;)
Thanks Brother... It is a easy attempt to try and help 🙏🙌
my car is 2012 Audi Q5 2.0t, I have changed to warmer spark plug from Denso IK22 to IK20, it seems more efficient in daily driving! (I found the factory OEM spark plug setting is too cold..
Hmmmm this is new. How would you say the colder spark plugs was not sufficient?
@@megalodononwheels over time you will have serious damage to valves and pistons! you also have to evaluate the color of the candles during their operation...
They should be hazelnut in color.
Great content Dose it still not loose oil .
Unfortunately... yes... I still do.
Much less but it looks like the longer it runs in the car the more it fades.

Can you please send m the code for the dipstick please?
I bought it maybe 3 years ago 😭
I wished I still had it. Even my friends locally asked me and I couldn't help.
Maybe I must look on the Dipstick, hopefully it Might have it but I doubt 🙆♂️
Do any of these help with rejuvenation of the Gasket too?
Unfortunately not :( there should be a specific one for that but I think its maybe just better to change the gasket? It might cause some slug
No. In my case I developed oil leak after this garbage.
Would this help as well a 2.0 diesel A6? Sometimes i read that a lot of additives are only for petrol engines.

Did u find a solution for oil consumption maybe piston soak with b12 I have a 2.0tdi a6 and it also burns oil
how much kilometers since video, is there still low/no oil consumption
It has been over 2 months, probably approaching 3 months...
I am still super happy, the oil consumption is very low. Yes it still uses oil but a fraction of what it did... Maybe 10% of what it used to consume.
I am not sure how much km I have done but I usually do a 1000km a month at most, so say about 2500 to 3000 since I did it...
Do you still smell smoke 💨 inside cabin ?
@@megalodononwheelsHows the consumption after 3 months? I have 3.0 tfsi with potentially the same problem, considering the same liquimoly products
And what was your oil consumption about before the treatment, did the flush affect it at all or only this? I have about 1l/1000km and very little smoke

Can the seal
Conditioner be used in a differential ?
Unfortunately I will be the wrong one to ask 😂

Do you have to do every oil change? Or if it fixed first time then your good?
I would say look at the results after an oil change. If it smokes then add the additives. If it doesn't smoke then your good till maybe the next oil change 🙌👌
Liqui moly says every 30000km
Money well spent!👍
Agree 💪
RESTORE - Engine Restore. Get a can of that and your car will thank you.
Ohhhhh I will go check it out thanks 🔥

You had too much oil in your car. That is going by your Turbo. That is why it's blowing out you're going to need to replace the turbo
Unfortunately that is not the case 💔
The turbo has been reconned not long ago and I have all the tests that has been performed on it to show it passed.

TFSI VAG Garbage engines! Avoid.
Lol yea a lot of problems 🤣
