Oil changes are typically recommended every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, depending on your car and oil type, but a defect in a vehicle’s engine can cause oil to leak or burn off, which can be damaging or even dangerous. A second class action lawsuit – unrelated to the first that was settled last year – against Volkswagen and Audi alleges just such an issue with the VW Group 2.0-liter turbo TSI engine, also known as the EA888. For those who know the company’s products products, the EA888 is found in a variety of vehicles from multiple brands, ranging from the sporty Jetta GLI to the Atlas family hauler and from the entry-level Audi A3 to the genteel Q7.
