2011 Audi S4 Review...100K Miles Later

Do them timing chains

[@Alczvnder]

[@gehlati]

yea what’s the preventative maintenance

[@gabekonieczny9545]

@@Alczvnder water pump, thermostat, pcv valve, coil packs, plugs, regular oil changes with quality oil, dsg fluid and filter service, motor mounts every 30k-40k miles or upgrade to 034 density mounts for a one and done job. That covers just about everything. These cars are incredibly reliable and a lot of fun when taken care of

[@joebidden4914]

@@slo.asf.s386 are you thinking of the last generations V8? I haven't heard anything about timing issues with the 3.0 supercharged. I had a B8.5 and we loved that car. Had the DSG and dog went. Having a manual would be the way to go and that would be a really fun street car.

Very nice review! For a sports sedan, no manufacturer beats Audi when it come to engineering, fit, form, fuction and timelessness of the styling! I still own a 2001 S4 stage 2 and it has been very reliable still on original turbos with +140,000 miles. And I bought it brand new.

So, I own a Lexus GS F sport, Lexus GX 460, and purchased my first A8…the A8 was used/90k windshield leaking…dripped on steering wheel now steering wheel functions out of commission…solar roof shad broken, rear shade broken…AND because I brought it out of my state I haven’t even been able to drive it after the 45 day temp plate time. :-/…the interior is crazy-diamond stitching…I do have the B&O System…abt - 7…I am purchasing a S4 from a mechanic/dealer…and I am looking forward to it. I just like these cars appearance. The A8 I have I wrapped and placed wheels on….I am very curious to see how this car does…Lexus will be my 🏆, but I am looking forward to this Audi adventure. The reason I trust buying this car is because I trust the seller. Very curious…good review.

[@djsthemetereman]

Looks terrific just gotta have the finance to maintain them they can get costly especially outside of warranty

[@13SyNtaX37]

I bought a 2010 Audi S4 B8 that was really high milage, close to 300,000 kilometers on the chasis and approximately 150,000 on the motor. Common engine fault codes at this high are normally O2 sensors and an Air Control Circut issue. Generally speaking, if you also buy one high-milage (because yes, regardless of KM's, its a very quick car and awd, so for 10,000 or less, you literally cannot beat it) but generally, get a Carbon Cleaning done on the intake valves and ensure your MEC Unit (in the transmission) has been serviced already and the front coolant bypass has been done. Luckily mine had the ARP coolant bypass, an upgraded pully and a tune. It leaks oil from somewhere lol but other than that, really solid machine for being 20 years young.

[@ronkirkham3410]

I was pretty sure that the super charged V six did not come in until two thousand fourteen in cars unless it was a convertible this one It's a 2011 on top of that. It's a six speed manual which I was told even from Audi only came behind the four point two v eight and it was also rare

I recently purchased a 2013 Audi S4 B8.5 with DSG. Long story short I got it off Copart as a project daily driver build. After 98% completed I think it’s having a gear shift issue. I’ve pulled up two codes both having to do with the car not going into the gear. Never owned an Audi before but had I known about issues with their DSG I think I would of stayed away.

[@NMEofdaST8]

i have a B8 laser red Audi S4, i love that car. Like you said, the B8 S4 ages really well and i get compliments on the car all the time. As far as reliability goes mine has been pretty reliable the last 2 years. 81k miles to 88k currently, its not my daily driver but i still drive it a fair amount. Mine does have the dreaded "Gearbox Malfunction, you can keep driving" error code, unfortunately. The car drives perfectly fine but the error code is coming from a sensor in the DSG transmission. The only way to fix it is to pull the whole transmission out. Ive decided to wait until something else seriously goes wrong with the transmission and ill replace the whole thing with a B8.5 tranny. I still recommended this car to anyone who wants a nice high performance sedan, the Audi quattro is unmatched. I recommend an S4 over an M3 any day. If you dont have little extra money for maintenance and if you dont have any shops(besides an Audi Dealer) near you that can work on Audis i dont recommend this car to you.

[@MrPhilbohrer]

Own a 2011 S4. I've spent over 12K in the last year repairing known issues. Still having issues with the DL501 transmission, much like everyone. On the other hand I'm stage 2 430HP, 0-60 in 4.0 seconds and I love this car. Too many mods to list. 84000 miles at this point and I can still out run most things on the road, while getting 18/26 mileage. Interior and paint are almost perfect because I maintain it.

[@elcolin_]

I recently got a 2010 Infiniti G37x and crashed so it might be a total. That's got me slightly shopping for something else. It's funny when you hear this Audi S4 has a 6 cylinder with 330hp and AWD. My 2010 G37x has AWD and 328hp WITHOUT a supercharger. Probably slightly more reliable than a German car. But I know all cars have issues if you look hard enough... so I'm watching these videos and curious on owners who've actually had these cars for a long time and high mileage think about long term ownership experiences...

[@BrinkofSpeed]

Great review man! The S4 is a nice car for sure. My buddy owned a 2001 and I loved it. His was a Bi-Turbo and he had stage 2 done to it, so it was really fast.

[@ryanpollock4699]

This car is a base model with no options. Doesn't have a sport diff, No B&O, No color display. There is a spare tire normally it's missing in this case ( i've never tried to fit a full sized rim though). Fully recommend one. I have a manual stage 2+ even on the stock clutch and cooling and it's pretty indestructible for normal daily life. 93k mile car issues include, thermostat, water pump, fuel pump control module, carbon cleaning (was AWFUL), serpentine belt tensioner squeal. The only thing i hate about the car is the manuals have a clutch depression switch issue where you can't start it without pushing hard on the clutch which gets worse with wear.

[@paull3179]

My 2010 S4 was purchased in 2014 with low miles and since then not one thing has failed on it. Most expensive repairs done are the brakes and spark plugs. It has 475hp and is a torque monster and you have to touch the throttle gently or it can spin all 4wheels if you are abrupt. None of my quattros spun wheels before. I always own several Audi and Porsche cars at all times like the red one in the pic.

[@timothybracken1728]

@@shiftautomotive854 you can do your research. But not much models out there anymore. They're very underrated sleepers. They look like regular audi but with a tune they can do 0-60 in less than 3 sec. People are buying them used like hot cakes. I know because i was looking for one. specially with the manuals.. The facelift B8.5s are very bulletproof cars, that being said there are some issues you should be aware of. Motor mounts above 50K miles, need to be checked tons of people have had theirs replaced under warranty right before 50K miles. "creaking noise" on startup, this could be loose chain guides due to a faulty initial design. It's not a very common problem but it can happen. There is a TSB for it for 2013-2014 models, check for this issue before buying. DSG is bulletproof, as long as it was properly maintained look at service records. CATS will blow eventually. Even some stock cars will blow through their cats at higher mileage 60-80K. Beware. Other than that, they are very solid reliable cars.

It's just whatever car that individual has on their driveway is all of a sudden the best car in the world. I will give Lexus people this, most Lexus enthusiasts actually put their money where their mouth is and own a Lexus or maybe they even owned some German car before and switched but either way most Lexus people have skin in the game whereas most German fan girls don't own anything and they're just talking just to hear their own thoughts

Don't need get a warranty, try to get a manual, will not have problems with the transmission and keep the money for potential repairs. Likelihood of repairs more expensive than the warranty is pretty low then. I own a 2010 manual and the only problem I had in 30k miles was a failed ride height sensor. Funnily that was also one of two issues I had with a B8 3.0tdi in 70k miles (the other was 3 failed door locks). B8 is currently probably as reliable as Audis ICE will ever get, they sorted a lot of problems from the past and was the last generation before the crazy emission control stuff.

What would turn more heads: 2013 g37x Or 2011 S4 ? Stock

Both can be be head turners but the S4 can provide more power

Great vehicle until 70k miles. DSG is garbage. Will fail. $5k repair. Otherwise good car. Source: I owned a 2012 for 4 years.

Lifes too short to drive boring cars and on the same note ,lifes too short to waste your income on cars as well. Besides that plasti-dipped grille and badge i wouldnt mind wipping this thing around till it exploded on me :D

[@MeynMotorGroup]

True very true certainly not telling people to go bankrupt over cars def stay within your means but for the few like us who would like to whip something like this we must get it with a warranty and immediately dispose of it once warranty has expired lol

[@sergiopereira9546]

@@MeynMotorGroup yup just be prepared for taking the deprecciation bullet over the already deprecciated car but with cars it must be like that , some people dont care about what others say and buy this lemons anyway and its hard to steer them in another direction , its a thing they have to learn by themselves. I still believe performance and reliability can match with each other , you own a perfect example of that

Im buying my first car and am stuck between an a4 prem plus w/ 50k miles or an s4 w/100k they’re pretty even in price and I love them both….I just don’t know which to pick.
