Most common problems:

Oil consumption

Some Audi A4 models, particularly those around the 2018 model year, are known for excessive oil consumption. This can lead to frequent oil top-ups and potential engine damage if not monitored.

Timing chain issues

Audi engines, including the inline-4, may experience timing chain tensioner problems. If the tensioner fails, it can lead to serious engine damage due to improper timing.

Turbocharger problems

The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine in the Audi A4 can develop issues with the turbocharger, leading to reduced performance and potential engine damage if not addressed.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines, like the one in the 2018 Audi A4, can suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves, which can affect performance and fuel economy.

Cooling system failures

Issues with the cooling system, including water pump failures, are common and can lead to overheating and severe engine damage.

Fuel injector malfunction

Fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to poor engine performance, misfires, and reduced fuel efficiency.

Pcv valve failure

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can fail, causing oil leaks, increased oil consumption, and rough idling.

Ignition coil problems

Faulty ignition coils can lead to misfires, rough idling, and reduced engine performance.

Crankshaft sensor failure

A failing crankshaft sensor can cause the engine to stall, fail to start, or run irregularly, as it affects the engine's timing.

Egr valve issues

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can become clogged or fail, leading to increased emissions, reduced fuel efficiency, and poor engine performance.
