2006 Audi A4 Quattro Review | 2006-2008

[@eddieb9102]

Mike...Great job! I am thinking of purchasing a 2006 A4 for my 16 yr old in 2021; your video was the most in depth over-view of the car's drivability I've seen! :)

[@jackfrost9736]

I just bought an 08' and it's absolutely stunning and the interior and exterior is immaculate. I hope it can be reliable, but it is the smoothest and most beautiful car I could have gotten. I love it! Especially coming from an Mk5 Jetta(bigger but not nearly as defined and powerful)

[@luccacostar2419]

have you had any electrical issues ??

[@jeffreya8329]

Jack Frost any reliability updates?

[@Vigilant28]

Well was it reliable

[@donpa9077]

Do you have a line or base version

[@yanni2112]

just got an 05 A4 with 3.2 love it!

[@jeffreya8329]

Thinking about pulling the trigger on a 06 2.0t fwd low mileage one, need more power and fun compared to my boring slow Camry

[@DrivenCompanion]

Highly recommend the A4 but I'd lean toward the Quattro if you can find a good one

[@Suprakid93]

I was thinking of buying 1 but idk I wanna know what to expect with maintenance

[@jimmybones3283]

I agree! Need to know what I'm. Getting myself into.

[@7z7z7kO]

When the video first started I thought this guy was the stradman 🤣

[@cloudcitydigital]

I've had 4 2.8l B5's over the last ten years, finally making the jump to B7 and picking up an extremely well maintained 2005.5 A4 with 167k miles. I'm pretty excited to see how the 2.0t feels, read nothing but good things.

[@DrivenCompanion]

I'm a huge fan of the 2.0T. There's a reason it spans the full lineup of Audi vehicles now

[@joshuatorrez7608]

do you still have the car? how has it been for you? are they expensive to maintain? I'm thinking of getting a 06 audi a4 quattro with 164k miles. guy says the water pump has a small coolant leak, does that have to do with the timing belt? cuz he said that's due for a replacement. do these models have the TFSI engine?

[@danielsan83]

hows that car treating you?

[@revico9353]

Neat and clean sedan class , today’s cars have that sharpy bulgy and fat out side and complicated inside, I don’t know what’s wrong with this car apart from speed compared to new a4

[@TJM23942]

I have recently bought a Audi A4, 2.0 turbo cabriolet, 2009, at the moment it runs really well, economy ain't brilliant, possibly needs checking out. I smell gas when approaching it but not when driving, will check it out when in the mood 😮😊. 😅.

[@jimmymckenna9832]

I have a b7 Audi A4 2008 and I love it the down fall in the design of this is the center console since the arm rest covers up one of the cup holders, other then that I love it but unfortunately I spun a bearing on the crank and I was going to get it rebuilt but being that the head is in bad shape I’m gonna just find a donor short block. This happened at 125,000 miles. It is a sline FWD, CVT transmission and I can’t believe the transmission out live the engine but I am gonna get her back on the road and hopefully enjoy it for a few more years and most likely gonna get a a7 next

[@DrivenCompanion]

Those center console covers are quite fragile as well

[@lando5053]

I’m thinking on an 06 a4. its got 90k miles, but it also has error code p0011. Is this an easy repair, or should I steer away from it. It runs and drives incredibly and feels amazing, but the code is making me question if it’s worth it

[@yassisan52]

i found one that needs a turbo is it fine ?

[@richkings7720]

Where can I get a good engine for my Audi 2006 2.0T

[@psychederik]

KZbinrs, I need some advice. I am looking into purchasing a 2006 Audi A4 2.0T with 126k miles on it. Is it reliable in terms of longevity and are the repairs affordable? What are some major problems?

[@DrivenCompanion]

You'll want to check and see if the timing belt/water pump service has been performed - these are typically due at about 90K miles. 2006 was one of the first years of the 2.0T and typically with any automaker there tend to be some problems with the first production runs of a new engine that are worked out over time. That said, Audi's are well built in many other capacities and are a vehicle worth maintining, but the repairs will be more than your average car. I've owned 5 A4s and loved each of them!

[@pablodebiddlybo3771]

Derik B. Absolute workhorses just check cam belt has been changed . Mine is at 187k now and it’s mainly tyres and brake pads every 15 and 30k . I have multitronic s line 2007 model and it’s never skipped a beat . A solid machine . Good luck with your purchase and happy driving

[@joshuatorrez7608]

@@DrivenCompanion seen your comment about timing belt and water pump! im thinking of getting a used 2006 audi a4 quattro with 164k miles. guy says the water pump has a small coolant leak and is due for timing belt and front brakes replacement. are these expensive fixes?

[@justinbreen2603]

It's funny I just got to say my Audi is the second car I've had since I had my daughter lol but the first car she has memories in is a 2001 Chrysler sebring haha it's in the driveway because it's mint so I'm never gonna sell it but she hugs it and everything lol

[@Dash-xu8jz]

Damn you got a lot of cars

[@utuber200985]

This is technically the 4th gen., not the 2nd...

[@Prosperity2312]

Got a 2006 A4 2.0t any tips?

[@a88888888a]

What are your thoughts on your b6 vs b7?

[@DrivenCompanion]

I really like both. In a way I wish Audi would have stuck with the smaller dimensions of the B6 as it feels a little more nimble to drive, but overall the B7 was an impressive progression. They really did quite a transformation inside and out and nice powertrain upgrade as well. Steering feel isn't as good in early years of the B7 either with the new electric steering.

[@a88888888a]

@@DrivenCompanion I hear you. I think a low milage b6 a4 auto that you convert to at 6mt, upgrade the ecu to 255tq and 225hp and swap out thr front brakes for brembo would be a good daily driver that's reliable. I just don't like the timing belt. If they did the cosmetic changes to the b6 like the b7 but kept it small it would be a winner

[@lubyaudia4262]

Great car I love mines

[@lincoln8530]

Is a used 2006 A4 2.0t Quattro with 145,456 miles for $4900, worth it?

[@ronijr4918]

Nah, 3500 tops

[@crackdoge5084]

I paid $4100 for it with pretty much the exact same mileage

[@ShadowNoCap]

No

[@mrbeendidthat3657]

I paid 4500$ that has one hundred thousand eight miles on it

[@justinbreen2603]

2000 was what I paid when buying a 06 a4 quattro inspected 280 k on it tho lol I own it now 3 years later 308 or so and going strong Haha leaks oil in 4 separated spots in everyone's driveway lol trans feels weird on take off hasn't gotten any worse in 3 years and for some reason every single one was prewired for satellite radio in the back but mine doesn't even have the fin antenna on the roof ffs but it was equipped with the top head unit navigation plus haha

[@TheSpacedrone870]

Should I be worried about buying an 06 Audi A4 2.0T with 150,000 miles that just passed inspection?

[@irueben28]

I would like to know that too ?

[@TheSpacedrone870]

@@irueben28 I told the dude nevermind about buying it. Because I know once something fucks up, it'll be close to 400-2000 for repairs and labor. I'd rather stick with domestic cars. Easier to work on. Easier to repair.

[@On_Cheap_Wheelz]

hey man I was thinking about buying an Audi A4 it has 196000 miles should I be worried or the things I should be looking out for

[@DrivenCompanion]

I would definitely be worried about an Audi with that many miles. Its certainly possible to get up to 300,000 miles but you'll have some expensive repairs along the way. You'll want to be prepared for that.

[@On_Cheap_Wheelz]

Thanks man ill keep that in mind

[@meeterhead462]

I've had mine 13 years . .still rolling well.. I'm ready to go APR stage2

[@joshuatorrez7608]

@Made In Poverty what were the things you needed to fix? im thinking of buying a used 2006 audi a4 quattro with 164k miles. guy says there's a small coolant leak from the water pump. is that related to the timing belt cuz he said its do for a timing belt replacement too and front brakes. would these be expensive fixes?

[@a88888888a]

B7 looks better, but the b6 1.8t is still more reliable if you maintain them. Audi specialist will tell you that the Golden era is b5 b6.

[@PnB_Menace]

If u don’t got 5 grand extra spare on transmission I wouldn’t buy one over 100k just FYI edit I own 2 2003 and 2007 1.8t and 2.0 t the list of replacement parts is multi pages long for both

[@ShadowNoCap]

Wish i seen this first 😂😭😭😭😭

[@justinbreen2603]

I daily a 06 2.slow with 308xxx km on it lol my first time owning a Audi quattro and I drive the shit out of it lol I love how well it handles tires just howling through the turns at speeds I've never try in anything else I've owned lol
