At my independent Audi garage a good few months back and got talking about the newer Audi's and he mentioned that the new FSI & TFSI engines are pretty poor - known in their circles as F@cking Sh@t Idea.........
Reckons they are pretty unreliable - how true that is I can't comment

All bar the R8 FSI engines are basically a nightmare - most suffer with varnishing of inlets from poor fuel atomisation. Unknown if later cars suffer less, but certainly everything from 2.0T via RS4 suffer badly. Think the newer RS6 is OK (not even sure if that's FSI, mind)
