2018 Audi S4: Start Up, Exhaust, Test Drive and Review

[@SMRees]

2:11 Fourteen piston brake calipers in the rear. Wow!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Simon Rees opps, suppose to be 4 piston, never realized I said that.

[@arjunbhattacharya3623]

3:52 for EXHAUST NOTE

[@badfairyy]

Just found it as I saw this comment. Thank you😍

[@spekkedrol]

those aren't fog lights on the front bumper, but sensors for the ACC and such...

[@leonakita]

The upgraded seats and adjustments are absolutely awesome! The pull out thigh support for taller drivers is a much appreciated add-on.

[@WellEnoughToDrive]

14 piston rear brakes? Awesome

[@Retepnilap]

I bought one in Navarra Blue. Has more ticks than I had boxes. Love it.

Just bought a 2018 prestige with 18k miles and clean history for 37k after months of looking and man am I excited! I’m in Chicago picking up in Arizona and driving back so we’ll see how it holds up to a 1500+ mile road trip😆

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Very cool! Congrats! have fun on that drive home!

[@jjamaya01]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed it was dreadful as I was on a time crunch but the car performed perfectly, perfect on road trips

[@MarcoTopG]

You should tune it!

[@ChrisR14]

When you're talking about specs you should do it right or leave it: 1. Those "Fog Lights" are radar sensors for the adaptive cruise control 2. Wheels are 19x8.5, not 19x8" 3. B&O Sound System has 19, but not 10 speakers 4. Nav screen is 8.25" instead of 7"

[@karikekkonen6135]

Not a word about massage function on the seats, I mean, there is a button right there and many options for fun massage while driving long distance. Also, like many, ignores the fact that back seats have a ski-through in the middle. Important feature for many skiers.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah those are cool features for sure

[@rp91497]

correct me if I'm wrong, but it has more than 10 speakers... I believe it has 18?

[@piotrosinski-petestradamus6204]

[@-tinayoufatlard-5814]

Raj P and it sounds amazing. My sister just got a 2019

Yeah the B9 headlights are way better

[@southsidediablo8868]

That exhaust note omg

[@awhs5435]

Just bought one. Wasn't really in the market but, a great daily car. Not the fastest but, the interior is very special. I own another 2019 SUV, and you can tell the Audi interior is a few levels above. Not just the tech, but over-all feel and quality. It's a fun car for sure. I had a pretty fast 500HP+ car before, it was fun but, you can't have fun with 500HP on the street, it's impossible because you'll be breaking the law in

Please anyone help ....buying a 2018 a4 premium. It has 14k miles and they want $19,000. Should i buy?

[@salemdigger5876]

Great review, Just did a test drive and ordered one of these with the red leather and Daytona pearl gray. Arrives in March of 18

How is the car? Gonna buy a 2018 this year

[@trentimus5700]

Is sepang blue an available special order color for this car? Do the upgraded ventilated seats have the massage function like the standard seats for the s4?

[@GeraldPined]

Good video bro!!!

[@SuperEman500]

Audi, Bring back the Aluminum ball shifter, and make it Automated manual like it was

That'd be cool to have some retro aspects. I think VW has a similar design like that now tho

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Sony Alpha a5100

[@jeremyhale303]

Just my 2 cents, but I watch sporty car reviews to see how the car performs in spirited driving. This was a long review of pretty tame driving and lost my interest.

[@jonmoore522]

So when you start it without starting the engine does the check engine light stay on like in this video??

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

In any car, when the electronics are on and the engine is not, the lights on the dash will stay on.

[@alexs1429]

In the market for a 2018 sedan. Considering this or a GT2 AWD. Hmm.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Both are great cars! I'd rather have the Audi. But a new Stinger is a great choice!

[@3rdgendodger330]

I like this interior but the S3 exterior better , also why does Audi and MB have those ugly screens on top of the dash like that? it looks like an old school GPS on there atrocious

[@tanhansel92]

Nice review, I don’t think those are fog lights on bottom corner of the front bumper though. Those are the front radar sensors I believe.

[@LuisOjeda-cy5mb]

Keep up the work I subscribed

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks!

[@StormAutoAdventures]

The main navigation screen looks a lot bigger than 7". My Infiniti Q50 has an 8" navigation screen that looks smaller than this. Why would they only use a puny 7" screen on a nice car like this? That can't be only 7".

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

They have updated it since 2018 ;)

[@StormAutoAdventures]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed Oh okay thanks for the reply. I love your videos by the way! Keep up the good work 👍

[@donniethomas3750]

Just a suggestion: When you are shutting someone else's car door, push it close by the handle or around that area. When you slam it close on that glossy B-pillar trim, you leave handprints that the dealer has to clean off and risk scratching that area before the new owner gets it.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Just went through the whole video, I didn’t even show shutting a door, but good tip..

[@alizzyblackie937]

Dose S4 2018 offer manual transmission

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

No! I think the last S4 with a manual was back in 2008 if I’m not mistaken.

[@Oversight85]

Why do we need 5 minutes on the specs? This is what Top Gear understood - if you want to know the size of the fuel tank, read a lame motor trend article. We allllll know it has 354hp. What we want to know is, how is it to drive? Does it understeer? Is the acceleration as rewarding as a one handed bra drop? Etc Decent vid brah, but can the line items.

[@gustavsnorkelson7232]

Good job

[@user-fy5gx6nx5p]

Love this car but Audi needs to do a much better job at giving competitive lease pricing or their sales will not compete with other brands

[@driftattack11]

First Gen s4 had a 2.7L biturbo v6

first generation s4 had an inline 5 but that might be before you were born ;) good review tho.

I just ordered one without the S Sports Package. Will I be happy with this car without that package vs. having it?

[@scrapnewyork]

My B9 has the S sports package and I love it but in my opinion you'll love the s4 either way. It's a really nice car and it feels special when you drive it. Puts a smile on my face every time I take it out.

[@CarlosHernandez-zf8dn]

Is a pretty reliable car?

[@sapientbudgie5652]

Prefer the look of the S3. More aggressive

[@troll_savagelegend4669]

Sapient Budgie you don't prefer it performance wise

[@sapientbudgie5652]

I just test drove the new S4 (I have a 2014 S4). I thought the throttle response was non-linear and thought the ZF gear box was disappointing. The supercharged S4 from last generation is going to be sadly missed. I drove the S3 and found it just as fast as the S4 and the side of the car has much deeper sculping and even the front fascia looks more aggressive. I think the car to get is the S3 not the S4. Just as fast, better steering, looks better, handles better. If you can deal with a smaller car, S3 is far better enthusiast choice or get the previous gen S4

[@t6553gw]

Sapient Budgie I test drove the new S4 twice with S Sport package and I think who ever approve the chassis tuning should be fired. It is a shame to see AUDI made a such terrible S4 also A4 consider how good the b8 was.

[@sapientbudgie5652]

I owned a 2014 S4 (6spd). I drove the 2018 S4 and was disappointed. The side break line is almost identical to the previous gen. Side of the car is round and smooth. Back tail lights are not working for me either. I might be one of the few that does not love the new interior. The huge aluminum (or carbon) piece across the dash and a screen that needs to go down. The power delivery was not linear. Jerky in the low end and felt no more powerful than previous gen with the supercharger. S3 had much better steering, just as fast with a better gear box. S3 front and back..side looks better from every angle. S3 and RS3 are the real enthusiast cars. S4 has turned into a bit of a porker with massaging seats and a disconnected chassis feel

[@t6553gw]

Totally agree, Audi should hear your comment "S4 has turned into a bit of a porker with massaging seats and a disconnected chassis feel"

[@davontyrell3724]

The check engine light was a paid actor 😂

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Any vehicle with the accessories on but the vehicle not running with have lights on the dash…

[@TheMaux64]

Why the screen is so thick and it is not touch... I prefer the old design and analog cockpit

[@rahulmadhusudan7813]

I recently found out your channel and you definitely do a good job in automobile reviewing. But I do have a small suggestion/request to the improvements though. The videos of yours that I've watched already limits the duration

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks for your comment. Yeh SabbKyle goes into a tremendous amount of detail. We like our videos a bit more brief where we really go through the 'most important' aspects of the car.

[@rahulmadhusudan7813]

You're most welcome and we do love the brief aspects that you and your team wanted to point out. That's the reason I personally wanted to see more from your channel and so is the query! Keep up the awesome work, subscribed already!!!

[@skippy5927]

Not worth the money in my opinion, for the same price you can get a rs3 that’s lighter and quicker but still have the same options and get that iconic 5 cylinder.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Slightly different car, if you need more rear seat space the A4/S4 has that room. But the RS3 is more much sporty and nimble, but it's also a smaller car too.

[@RangerxTurbo]

While i agree can't lie you could find the s4 for cheaper and its bigger space plus a bit better on gas. Downside is if you just want pure performance well than sure. But also who compares an rs3 to and s4 instead of an rs4? All different categories for different types of people

[@Great_America]

Finally, Audi got rid of the ugly round air vents 👍🏻
