Default ANY AND ALL audi S4 all problems and maintenance costs!?

ANY INFO IS HELPFUL!!!! Hey guys, I am looking into two different vehicles. The primary candidate being the 2015-2018 audi s4. So since this is going to be my first vehicle i pay for completely and totally i want to know everything before i make a decision. So what are the maintenance costs like? What will an oil change and routine maintenece to anything broken or replaced fix costs? Has anyone had any problems with theirs? and if so have they been major or minor? ALL INFORMATION CAN HELP!!! thanks guys

Default 2010 B8 Audi S4

Hi guys,
I own a 2010 B8 Audi S4 with less than 80K miles, I am experiencing a oil consumption issue. I recently spend about $4k in costs with separator, valves, Gasket and hoses changed. Now my mechanic is saying to pay up 7-8K additional to have piston rings changes with new hoses and valves. I am burning 1qrt of oil every 150 miles. I performed a consumption test myself. I called Audi USA, but I am out of the 8/80k warranty since it is 2019. I hear Next time I can add oil to your car add a bottle of "High Mileage Compression Repair (with ring seal)" to your oil. ($8) It took about a 200 miles of driving for it to start working but...my car no longer uses any oil!!! Is this safe? Can someone help me fix this issue. Please advise. In desperate need of repairing this issue.
