Advice needed

Hi guys hope your all keeping safe.. I currently have an audi a3 but looking to upgrade to an audi a5 1.8 tfsi 11 plate, are there any common problems with this model or would it be better to go for a 2litre? I don't drive far nor do I drive fast

Thanks

Welcome to the forum Emma, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 

The 2.0 tfsi engine is prone to excessive oil consumption due to Piston issues. I believe the 1.8 is more reliable. 

Here's a YouTube video which will help:

Thankyou, found a 11 plate which I really love.. is a Tfsi.. what are your opinions?

2.0tfsi? I'd say check the service history, see if it's had any warranty work on the engine. 

Cheers
