Cynide Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Hi All, I've recently purchased my '13 Audi A4 2.0 165kw and have noticed it smokes after idling for a few minutes. I'm never sure if the smoke I see during warming up is normal as it has been cold and other cars seem to do it as well but when it idles for a few minutes, it starts to smoke. The video was taken by the VAG specialist who gave it a clear bill of health, until I asked him to idle for a bit. He's unsure and would be speculating that it is the issue that these engines have. I thought the B8.5 fixed this, so not sure what to think. The car pulls well and there is no lumpiness or stuttering. I've attached the video for viewing and comments.
