    Audi A6, A7, A8 recalled

    Audi has recalled a trio of its large cars to fix a problem with oil supply to the turbocharger, that could cause the engine to lose power.

    Audi Australia has recalled the 2012-2017 A6, A7, and A8 to fix a problem with oil supply to the turbochargers.

    “Due to a manufacturing issue, the oil supply in the oil strainer to the turbochargers may become clogged and affect engine operation,” Audi says in its recall notice.

    “A loss of power while driving increases the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders.”

    • A total of 600 vehicles are impacted by the recall
