I door that wouldn't open on an A8 and EGR valve and DPF on A6. Considering in total I have spent more than twenty years owning Audis (Had a couple of Mercs and a Volvo in between) they have worked out pretty cheep per year. Just need money set aside for when things go pear shaped. The pleasure of driving Audis, especially Quattros on windy roads is worth the occasional expense.

I get 32+mpg on motorway (7.5l/100km). The problem with diesel is the fun stops at 4.5k rpms and the engine noise is not great. In a petrol engine, the fun starts at 4.5k rpm as you know 😂😂😂.

Bought a 2014 Audi A6 TDI with 30k miles, a few years back. I've put 40k miles and never had a single issue with the car. These diesel engines are extremely solid. The only issue that could come up would be the DPF(diesel particle filter), which by the way is covered under the emission warranty up to 8 yrs from msrp or 100k miles. Not to mention the performance/ efficiency aspect of them. 38 mpg freeway, around 30 mpg combined. And people, these engines have 428 ft/lbs of torque at 1750 rpm. Again, 428 ft/lbs, just think about it. It pulls extremely satisfying without revving hard. 0-60 mph in 5.5s. And at the end of the day you look at the mpg and it's 30. Another aspect to consider is the quality of the interior of these cars, the materials used and the German craftsmanship. Interior space is amazing. So Scotty, I don't appreciate your input, you're not 100% on the money with this car. Overall this is an amazing piece of engineering. My A6 TDI was one of the best cars I ever had.

But if you want buy a car, before you should check which engine are reliable, nowadays is no problem at all, even on your mobile. Generally Audi have better engines than Mercedes or Bmw. With Audi A6 C7 3.0 tdi I made almost 400k miles and was absolutely great car. Old Audi 80 or 100 had the best quality car ever, old Volvo was also good and Toyota(japan production).

This is a good example why Audis have a reputation for being reliable cars in Europe than can do 200k+ miles, they're all TDIs. Those V6s just keep going. The gasoline motors have been more problematic in the past which is possibly why they don't have a great rep in the US.

The VAG 1.9TDI PD diesel engine (especially the 130 horsepower variant) is known here in the uk for being extremely reliable and economic. It sounds like an agricultural vehicle is coming down the road when one goes by but I average 45mpg combined in a 2003 Passat wagon with this engine. Mine has 155k miles on the clock and runs without issue. As long as the oil is changed every 10k with the correct PD oil (the camshaft actually operates pump injectors) they are known to run for more than 300k miles without needing major work.
@89ayrtoncs2 жыл бұрын
130 horsepower? Is that a lawn mower? Lol just kidding buddy. That kind of car would never work here in Canada it would never start in the winter. I got a 2003 ford f 150 v8 5.4 litre gas got 520000km I do a oil change every 100k km or when I remember which is about every 4 or 5 years, just gas in and it always starts even when it’s -40°c I just drive it for work, everyone over here prefers a nice suv or a pickup truck to the point where most manufacturers stopped Selling sedans. And you can’t buy a diesel since 2015 except those massive v8 pickups like the dodge 2500 with a 6.7 Cummins diesel. No one wants them because not every gas station sells diesel and it’s hard to find parts and mechanics that know how to work on diesels. And in the winter they just won’t start specially if they got a small Engine Like a 2 litre or 2.5 . Well oin the end European vehicles are good for Europe, and North American vehicles are good for North America. You will never see a Renault in North America the same way you won’t see a ram 5500 in Europe.

Scotty, It’s interesting to see how different the USA is from Europe. Most german brands don’t depreciate as fast, and in some countries (like mine) you can actually have a harder time on finding a mechanic with all the knowledge and tools to work on many Japanese cars (including Toyota, which also sold diesels until recently) than any german car, which easily makes them more expensive to fix if they break. Most german cars can range from long lasting engines and transmissions to the exact opposite, often within the same lineup. In Audis (for instance), the Tiptronic transmissions are usually reliable, and you see lots of them running for hundreds of thousand km with a tune (asking more of all the components), without major breakdowns (the multitronic transmissions often fail in cars on the stock form). That being said, manual transmission cars are still very common in Europe (not the case of the 3.0 TDI engine, which I believe that only exists with auto), and that helps in keeping some things simpler on that particular subject. Like I say for quite some years, German car brands can have some of the best engineered things and some of the worst, often in the same car! When buying a used car, it is advisable to look very carefully which are the models to buy, and which ones to avoid (most people ignore that). On a final note, VW group cars have probably one of the most complete and easy (cheap to own) “scan tools” (VCDS), which allows to do most things that only the dealer can do (it reads and codes most if not all VW/Audi/Seat and Skoda cars). Although VCDS is not a part of VW, it actually brings a whole new level of analysis and understanding to the enthusiastic DIY person, which is helped by a huge online community (other advantage of any brand that sells a lot of units in a particular region). This is not to say that they’re cars that anyone can easily work on them (they aren’t), but they do have some real advantages in Europe on that subject (even when compared to MB or BMW). And as diesel cars are so common over here, it’s easier to find a mechanic that is used to work on them, which also brings the maintenance costs down. As for main dealers, they still rip you off. Cheers. PS: I always find funny when cars like the A6 are called a “small car” in the USA, as they’re not small by European standards.

thanks for the advise Scotty, I am ASE Certified Automotive Mechanic just over 20 years, and I don't even wanna Deal with this car too. VW, Audi, Porsche, Big time Trouble Maker. and guess what, today we got one in, a very close got this 06 audi a3 2.0T for free, and he wants us to fix it before he get the car back... seems like it is going to be a long list to work on.

i have a 2014 audi a4 with the i4 2.0T. it has 184k miles on it right now and is still on the original engine. i’m thinking about doing the timing chain soon. haven’t had many problems at all with it. fuel level sensor, a misfire, front axles, oil consumption, and that’s about it. i think they’re great cars. they just have some quirks

I have a 2017 A4 and have had zero maintenance issues with it so far. Only at 70,000 miles. It doesn't even use oil in between maintenance intervals. I do believe maintenance is key to Audis. If you neglect the maintenance the car won't last.

I have a 2014 Passat 1.8TSI APR tuned with 140K on it, I follow the factory maintenance schedule, which is basically oil changes and spark plugs every 50K. It runs like new and gives me 32mpg. It has been bullet proof since I bought it.
@justsomerandomracing89413 жыл бұрын
I don't think that the 2.0t is a bad engine. My father has a 2007 Audi a3 with that engine and isn't a bad car. Also it has 200000 miles on it with the original engine and transmission. That car was purchased for $3000 with 150000 miles and it still running strong. But we always maintain our cars so I think that is the key of reliability.

The key is in proper maintenance. Oil/filter changes every 5-10k miles and transmission fluid/oil changes every 40k miles are crucial to keeping this car up & running.

I bought an Audi A4 with 60K miles on it. 6 years later I put more money into it than what the car is worth. Horrible car but the performance/comfort was so good.

ALH 1.9 TDI you just pop off the hoses and prefill the filter. No issues. Easy peasy. Mine's a manual too. The 1.9 ALH TDI manual is one of the most amazing machines on the road to this day. I've got over 250 miles on this tank (around town) and 3/4 tank is left. It eats hills and curves for breakfast on only 90 HP. (Torque) Try that with anything else. My concern for keeping it is the AZ sun. I don't have a garage. It is NOT for Sale.

Bought a used A7 Tdi prestige in 2019 for 35k. I change the fuel filter every 10k and change the oil with Liqui Moli synthetic every 5k, along with a can of LM Cerratec every year. She's never given me any problems and has 86k on her, and the 700mile tank is also amazing.
