Official summary

On Audi vehicles with 4.0L TFSI engines manufactured within a specific period, the O-rings in the coolant lines for the turbocharger may be damaged. This can result in leaks between the coolant lines and the turbocharger.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
