[@SuperSlimshady1995]

I had an A4 Avant from 2011 and still to this day consider it one of the best cars I ever had. The design of the thing 10 years ago was incredible in my opinion, it never gave me any problems with reliability and since it was the 2.0 Liter Diesel, it consumed very little (it probably also polluted tons of NOx in the atmosphere, but hey no one's perfect). Owning now the latest A4 Avant, I have to say that the built quality was actually better in the previous gen and the design too was much better back in the day, should have just kept my old A4 😢

[@madmikesch2453]

No worries, it is one of the cleanest Diesel-cars like the VWs too. All brands cheated most of them a lot more than VW. A Volvo was tested with 10 times more NOx than a VW Passat with 2.0TDI. In Germany the A4 is allways the winner in reliability in its class the last 30 years .

[@lonewolf1300]

I have the b7 gen a4 ,same 2.0 tdi ,i bought it used with 260k km in it ,the car had only a turbo issue ,with the geometry, i fixed it at a specialised service ,and i put a bigger hexagon bolt at the oil pump ,the car had no issues ,and has one of the most reliable engines from that generation ,seen some with 400k+ km in them ,the thing is ,if people take care of their cars ,they will last a life ,but if they don't give a fk ,then the car maybe will be unable affter 150-200k km in them.

[@bladerunner5788]

I still have a 2011 A5 with the 2.0TDI lump in it. It runs smooth as anything still to this day. Has nearly 150,000 miles/240,000 km on it. Never had an issue bar obvious wear and tear, replacing suspension components and tyres. Regular services and just basic maintenance and they can run for a long time. People seem to forget that you are supposed to maintain a car. Its not a one off purchase. Same with anything.

Super great car, if youre the type that stays on top of maintenance, don't let the early B8s scare you off from getting an A4.

my dad bought the A4 with a 2.0 Tdi engine back in 2009. Damn that car is awesome. It has 330.000km on it, without any major damage. The only part that failed was the turbocharger, but that was not because of engine problems. It still is the most reliable and safest car of my family. Cruising fun fact: The car weights about 1500kg and feels really heavy. But its a god damn arrow on the highway. It feels stable, low and incredibly comfortable at speeds over 160kmh(i live in germany)

[@Byefriendo]

The TDI models of these cars are great, the 2.0TFSI + DSG combo is the real dud of the lineup (ask me how I know). And yeah they do feel really heavy, I suspect it is because they have the polar moment of inertia of a cruise ship having the big iron block engine hanging fully infront of the front axles, as well as the soft suspension and plenty of body roll.

[@AlwaysHardstyle100]

I own a '09 Audi A4 Avant with the 1.8TFSI engine. As you said in the clip, I had to replace my engine costing me a healthy 6K. However, this was due to a broken chain tensioner. Never had my Audi leak or consume any oil. I did replace everything about the (new) engine. Like timing chain + tensioner, new valves, new seals, new pistons + rings, everything... Cost me a fortune, but love my Audi nonetheless and was totally worth it.

I myself daily a 2010 Audi A5, same CAEB I4 as the A4.

Audi a4 in the EU got most of the engine problems fixed in 2010 and by 2011 everything was fixed, 2008 and 2009 are bad if they didn't get fixed by the warranty/recall. I guess US got them late and the fixes too?

US cars get the updates slower than the EU cars typically. I think that’s why they launch VW/Audi cars a year behind in the US now.

I drive a 07 Colorado and it’s really not that bad. The i5 engine doesn’t get the best mileage but for what it is, it’s quicker than some older sports cars. The interior is not as cheap feeling as what they are currently putting out too.

I've seen my friends PT Cruiser crawl up a slight hill with a cloud of black smoke pouring from the exhaust

[@1097monster]

The worst I had WAS an '07 colorado. Even with the I5 the thing didn't go as fast as it should've. There were constant engine issues such as air hoses breaking, the water pump almost exploding on the way to the mechanics, starter issues that the mechanic couldn't fix, and the electrical for the AC system just not working. I was relieved when it crashed and insurance totalled it. Don't buy this vehicle. If you want a truck thats smaller than a full sized, get a tacoma. They're not as cheap, but that's because they weren't cheaply built.

The first clip of the white Audi sliding wasn't an A4 that was an s4... And earlier generations of a4s have been just fine 1.8T was a solid motor. Early 2.0t's had a there issues but no reason to not buy one if you're doing preventative maintenance

Bought used 1999 Jeep GC in 2012 and it was nonstop problems, month after month. Gas hog too. But good handling and power. I young woman probably texting ran off the highway and plowed into my Jeep and totaled it. Probably did me a favor. Yet it hurt after almost eight years of repairs and improvements (like new K&N air filter, redone leather seat bottoms) and my thinking that just maybe we (me and the car) had reached a plateau and no more big issues. Looking now to buy a 2017 Honda Fit. Getting on in years and it will likely be my last car. I had a great time meeting all the mechanics and specialists in Puerto Vallarta, (which accounted for half my mileage over the eight years of ownership), but too old now to have another problemed vehicle!

I saw the Audi and immediately clicked out of fear for my beauty. To my relief it was the A4. I own a facelift model [2017] of the original A5 [2007]. The original A5 and the A4 are pretty much identical except for the head lights and the A5 offering a coupe as well as a sportback/hatchback. Ive owned my A5 for 2 full years and edging past the 90k kilometers she's given me no cause for complaints whatsoever. Which isn't something i could say for a colleague of mine who drives or more appropriately drove an A6

[@saulespino3037]

Did'n't know BMW 's were known to be "solidly reliable", I knew that the maintenance parts are expensive though.

[@MrMeeHigh1]

300 to 500 euro for an oil change. 1. Unscrew oil sump screw. 2.wait for old oil to leak. 3. Screw oil sump screw 4. Pour new oil Also many mechanics steal your new oil and put used oil back. Don't give them the new oil. Put it yourself!

My B7 has been ok once I did the timing service. Now, the B8’s are the most problematic by far. The B5, B6 and B7 may have issues, but mostly because of maintenance and age.

[@joelhjones]

Following up to jonathanpeterson1’s comments, he’s referring to generations of the Audi A4, where a B8 is the 2009 ~ 2011 year range covered in the video. I own a 2010 that’s doing well with 186k mi. I had bad oil consumption that, fortunately, my Audi dealer covered full pistons and rings replacement at 90k. Then a while later after expired warranty I learned about the timing chain tensioner defect that could cause the catastrophic engine failure mentioned in the video. At my $2k expense I had the timing chain system replaced. If I were currently in the market to buy I would consider a B9. Several improvements and I haven’t heard of any reliability issues. Anyone?
