S4 B8 Timing chain rattle
Discussion
Mine is a 2011 S4 with 45k. No funny noises on start-up - just a leaking diff :-)
Oil consumption - mine has got through 2 litres in 18k miles. I use the Audi spec stuff since it is topping up rather than Oil change. I though this rate was quite high as it is primarily used for commuting / family hauling, however, much better than your 1 litre per 3K.

Ours was serviced in June (2011 model, 28k now) before we bought it, and used about half a litre of oil between then and August when I topped it up. Doesn't seem to be dropping now after that first top up so may just have been due to the service. It only needed half a litre to go from almost the bottom of the MMI indicated level to full. Must buy one of the Audi oil level checking tools - they're designed for testing the sensor accuracy rather than leaving in place
