2.0T TFSI Oil Consumption
A4, A5, Q5 (2008-2013)
The 2.0T TFSI engine (2008-2013) is known for excessive oil consumption due to piston ring design. We perform consumption tests and piston ring replacements when needed.
Timing Chain Tensioner Failure
A4, A5, Q5, TT (2008-2013)
Early 2.0T engines have weak timing chain tensioners that can fail, causing chain skip and catastrophic engine damage. Early detection and replacement is critical.
DSG Transmission Issues
A3, TT, S3 (All Years)
DSG transmissions require specialized service every 40,000 miles. Common issues include mechatronic unit failures, clutch wear, and shuddering. We're DSG specialists.
Carbon Buildup (Direct Injection)
All TFSI/FSI engines
Direct injection engines don't clean intake valves with fuel, leading to carbon deposits that cause rough idle, misfires, and power loss. Walnut blasting service available.
Coolant Leaks & Water Pump
All models 5+ years old
Audi plastic water pumps and thermostat housings commonly fail. Electric water pumps on newer models can also fail without warning, causing overheating.
Ignition Coils & Spark Plugs
All models
Audi ignition coils often fail causing misfires and check engine lights. Spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000-60,000 miles depending on engine.

Absolutely! Independent shops like ours can perform all Audi services and repairs. We use Audi-specific diagnostic tools (VAG-COM/VCDS and factory tools) and follow factory procedures. Your Audi warranty remains intact for routine maintenance. Many Audi owners prefer independent shops for personalized service and competitive pricing.
Do you specialize in Audi DSG transmissions?
Yes! DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) transmission service is one of our specialties. We perform DSG fluid changes, mechatronic unit repairs, clutch pack replacements, and software adaptations. Our transmission expertise makes us uniquely qualified to handle these complex dual-clutch systems that many shops won't touch.
What is the most common Audi repair?
The most common Audi repairs we see are: 1) Oil consumption issues in 2.0T TFSI engines (piston rings), 2) Timing chain tensioner failures (especially 2.0T engines from 2008-2013), 3) DSG transmission service and repairs, 4) Coolant leaks from water pump and thermostat housing, 5) Carbon buildup cleaning on direct injection engines.
How do I know if my Audi needs service?
Watch for these signs: dashboard warning lights (especially oil level, coolant, or transmission warnings), unusual noises (rattling on cold start may indicate timing chain), excessive oil consumption (more than 1 quart per 1,000 miles), transmission hesitation or jerking, rough idle, or the Service Due notification. Audi's service interval system monitors many components.
Do you use genuine Audi parts?
We offer both genuine Audi parts and high-quality OEM alternatives. Many 'genuine' Audi parts are manufactured by suppliers like Bosch, INA, and Valeo who also sell under their own brands at lower prices. We'll discuss options so you can make the best choice for your budget without compromising quality.
How long does Audi repair take?
Repair times vary: Oil service takes about 1 hour, DSG service 2-3 hours, timing chain replacement 8-12 hours, carbon cleaning 3-4 hours. We offer same-day service for many repairs. For complex jobs, we provide accurate time estimates upfront and keep you informed throughout the process.
Do you service Audi Quattro all-wheel-drive?
Yes! Quattro AWD service is a specialty. We perform differential fluid changes, Haldex service (on transverse Quattro models), transfer case service, and diagnose Quattro-related issues. Proper maintenance of the Quattro system is essential for performance and longevity.
