Bad fuel economy, fouling up spark plugs......

Short term, that'd be about it.

I too had this issue. CEL came twice in two weeks. Took it in to Audi dealer and they replaced it, along with some other stuff under warranty. So it hasn't come back. So it'll be OK. But CTS is not hard to change from the looks of it.
