Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

Dynamic Brake Support, being a standard feature, may sometimes fail to engage properly, leading to reduced braking assistance during emergency situations.

Carbon buildup

Turbocharged engines like the 2.0-liter used in the 2017 Audi S3 are prone to carbon buildup on intake valves due to direct fuel injection, which can affect performance and fuel efficiency.

Timing chain tensioner issues

Some Audi engines from this period have been known to suffer from timing chain tensioner failures, potentially leading to severe engine damage if not addressed.

Oil consumption

Certain Audi engines, including the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, have been known to consume oil at a higher rate than normal, which could necessitate more frequent oil top-ups.

Turbocharger failure

Turbochargers can wear out over time, especially if the car is driven aggressively. This can lead to a loss of power and potentially expensive repairs.

Fuel injector problems

Direct fuel injection systems can sometimes suffer from clogged or failing fuel injectors, leading to misfires, rough idling, or reduced performance.

Cooling system issues

Problems with the cooling system, such as water pump or thermostat failures, can lead to overheating and potential engine damage.

Emission system faults

Given the complexity of modern emission systems, faults can appear in components like the EGR valve, catalytic converter, or oxygen sensors, potentially leading to failed emissions tests or reduced performance.
