Default New Owner of Audi A3 Q S Line

Hi,

I recently purchased a used Automatic Audi A3 Q S-Line 2009 with 108000km, and was wondering is there anything I could proactively due to maintain this car. Car currently drives like a dream and I want to keep it that way.

Thanks in advance,

Keep an eye on the oil. You'll burn a litre about every 3000 km.

I haven't noticed any issues with excessive oil burning on my '09 A3. I've read that it's limited to A4's! But keep an eye on it anyway!

08 A4's have the oil issue and looks like 07 A3's. Although in my research I didn't come across that issue. Apparently the 09's is when the new TFSI engine was released which stopped that oil issue?

Anyways, I currently own an 09 A3 2.0T Q Sline, sitting at almost 130k. Never had an oil issue whatsoever, but I do change it every 5,000. I've had to warranty my A/C maybe 5x on the car, and its gone kaput once again. Unfortunately my CPO warranty expired at 120k, so maybe look out for that.

PS: buy my coils lol
