Thought u hated audi scotty
Just mixing it up, if I showed Toyota’s or old cars every time it would get boring fast
Scotty Kilmer so you would advise not to buy a 2015 Audi S5 with about 30k from the dealer certified?
Finally a beautiful car on this channel
GTI Racer Seth thank you so much!
@ yes and this car is still running great... I am very blessed to drive this car
yoshi1015 yoshidiman any crazy issues/expensive Maintenance so far? I heard B8/8.5 are extremely reliable and I’m thinking about getting one, but coming from a Honda the thought of repair costs is scaring me
Scotty's probably thinking "moneypit !!!!!"
Aaron hes not wrong
Michal006 Cool car not gonna lie but what a job to work on them.
Aaron that's why I will stick to Japanese cars. They might have a cheap feel inside, but at least they will last for a long time.
"Endless" money pit. Shoulda bought a lexus lc500. Toyota 4life.
SKYNET fr tho. They just as luxury
Love this car, engine is very tuner friendly and reliable for the most part. Burns a little oil but thats most vw/audi products and this particular one is one hell of a sleeper
The 3.0 and b8.5 and up don’t have oil problems
Honor Hurricane yes they do!!!!
I have a 2010 a6 3.0t and I keep 5q of oil with me at all times lol!!!!!
My b5 has never burned any oil
"This Audi might be nice, but this Toyota celica has 260,000 miles and drives like a dream!"
I doubt it drives like a dream but I get what you're saying
That Celica isn’t dropping panties lol
S4 was the best car I've owned. Seats were great, DCT was great and bang and olufsen sound was awesome
is it reliable? im looking used s4 same engine currently
Sounds like the Roman guy or something from regular car reviews
I have a 2011 Audi S4 (stock). 86,000 km (whatever that is in miles) with absolutely no issues, and I drive it like I stole it, everyday. The engine seems bulletproof.
How’s it hold up after all this time? Looking to get one
@@WOMPCRASH it currently has 120,000 km and is still running strong. Absolutely zero issues, I adore this car. It's due for an oil change and new tires soon but that's it.
@@robinupham1975 how often did you change the oil?
@@robinupham1975 I drive it like I stole it too, should I change the oil every 5k or every 10k? Also any other pointers you got for me? Thank you
@@na8428 Change it every 5k and always at least let the idle drop down to normal everytime you start it. Also turn of ac compressor before turning off car. Spark plugs can go 60k but check at 40 and don't forget to check your air filters.
"I want it to be babied"
Revs to redline before shift
And he does his own servicing
News flash, cars that are tuned are generally tuned to make more power as the rpms go up.
Hitting stock redline is nothing in these cars. Most aftermarket tunes rev it out to 7200 rpm.
I know someone hijacked Scotty's CZcams account when he promotes a Audi
Audi and vw build quality has increased tremendously in the last 5+ years or so. I would love an s4 but unfortunately drive a 13 Passat vr6. It has a lot of power but it’s only fwd. gotta love the dual clutch transmission also.
AircraftMechanic yes not AWD but same power train right?
Passats are nice!
G0K3001 no it’s different. It’s a 3.6L vr6 which is a cross between an in-line and v6. It uses only a single cylinder head. It’s also an NA engine. Makes 280hp. It’s mated to a 6 speed dual clutch transmission.
AircraftMechanic Oh okay, got it.
Am I thinking of the 4 cyl. Passat w/tiptronic from 98 on? Like the A 4?
Thanks-
I love Audis and Volkswagens as well. I have a 2017 Passat R-Line 1.8T with over 100K on it. It's never required a single repair. Just change the oil every 5,000 miles, trans at 50K and alignment every 40K. My 2014 Jetta 1.8T was the same-no repairs or malfunctions.
VW build quality is fantastic, and I believe Scotty is unfairly prejudiced against the brand. My 2019 Jetta GLI 2.0t is being delivered next week! 😁
Don't give up AircraftMechanic! I'm only 18 and I have a 2015 S4. I completely bought it myself so you can too. All you need it a good job, motivation and money skills.
I wonder now how much oil burns this TFSI engine per 1000miles...BTW car looks great and that supercharged sound is awesome! Good work man! Good luck with your car.
Nexi Tech I would imagine not much since it’s supercharged not turboed
no it does, easily fixed with an aftermarket catch can
MCatwar all HEMIs burn oil and nobody cares LoL.
lmao that's because it's american and you know, european cars are obviously inferior to german cars lmaoooo
jlrockafella No, it's just that most people don't have cars with hemispheric engines due to how much gas they drink.
I just bought a 2010 S4 DSG with low miles. I went APR Stage 2 tune with supercharger pulley, APR TCU tune, APR intake, and H&R OE springs. Amazing car. My B6 S4 with its V8 can't compare.
That's a BEAST! It sounds like heaven on earth... Love the sound of that supercharger! That DSG transmission rocks!
It's okay I guess. But I'd rather have a silver 1993 Toyota Celica.
Agreed
Lol Toyota...
It's a 1994 celica... Fail!!!!
I'd never want anything Toyota. That crap is ugly
I'll take my chances in the Toyota for a road trip any day over the Audi
I have the pre facelift version 2010 s4 and man I gotta tell you, best car I’ve been blessed to own 🙏🏽
The 11th Commandment should be “Thou Shall Not Covet Another Man’s Audi,” because I do!
Engine is Impressive fast. Sounds very nice, better then Mercedes
Audi knocked it out of the park with the 3.0L V6.
Revv up your enginesss🚗💥💥💥💨💨
racingdriver05 right throw them rods so scotty makes money
rev up your lawn mowers 🏎💥💥💥💨💨
Amazing car. The Audi S and RS cars are very popular here in the UK. Service it right and there's no reason it'd be any more trouble than any other car. I've driven a variety of cars and it's the German ones that always seem to drive the nicest.
I completely agree. I’m in the USA and most my friends told me “ohh your German car is so expensive to fix and not very reliable” 🤷♂️ but I see all cars having same basic problems due to negligence.
Literally one of the most reliable motors from Audi, keep up with the appropriate maintenance and she’s a beauty. Easy to gain power too.
The sound of that engine under load is awesome.
Or show off Sunday somebody should have a video of an old rusted out beater Scotty we need a video like that
+waffle stomp What makes you think that? One of the past videos had a guy showing off his SVT Lightning, and he's done a few videos of his own praising the new Mustangs.
It's a beautiful car.
I love the Audi cars.
Probably expansive.
It was expensive new. Used ones are still the price of a new Corolla.
cheap to buy used until you need to replace a screw and need to empty your bank account
if you take care of it as much as possible it won't need fixing as much
Doug Doug unfortunately Corollas and pretty much anything Toyota makes is butt ugly
They are endless money pits man
Most people bashing Audi probs dont even own a car :o
I own a 2016 S4 and the supercharged 6 is know to be very reliable.
Finally a real car on this channel!!!
I have this car and it is freaking awesome. I don't have the mods he has, but the stock power is more than fine.
Gorgeous looking Audi, she's looking mighty proud!! Man, I know what you mean about the paddle shifters........
😎🤙👍
Ed Spencer thank you so much! Yes it has been so much fun
That supercharger whine sounds like a mini hellcat
why buy a car with that much power if you are going to drive like a granny.
very good question
Fr
+nothing how is he driving like a granny??
Because you actually want it to last and not run it into the ground.
because we have to drive like women in todays world
What a beauty...
the front looks like adolf hitlers mustache
😍 💪
Revv up your engines meme! **emote emote emote emote explosion**
Nice ride...I got 137,285 miles on my 2010 S4 now....
Still running like a champ huh
Great looking car. I am not a fan of that supercharger whine. It sounds a little over spun. The exhaust sounds good.
I like it but its not no turbo tho
Not a fan of Volkswagen ... But this car looks GOOD
Martin Evans vw owns audi u einstein
ok so basically Porsche, bentley, lamborghini, Ducati and many other brands are just VWs......... interesting
NightArrow technically yeaa 🙄
NightArrow ... Well they are all part of Volkswagen group ... So yes
ok so basically Range rover is TATA, this is getting funny let me grab some popcorn.
Something about Audi, they by far make the best sounding modern cars
Yeah, the passing power in this car is sick.
Thank you, Daniel, your car sounds amazing.
And thanks as always, Scotty!
Dual Pulley S4 should be real close to 500HP. I have a stage 1 S4 single pulley and it's putting out 417.
What have you done to your engine so far?
now,..that is a real war machine!!
I'm jealous of this awesome car I have a superchargeres cobalt but it can't do that wo all wheel drive n more horses
I am a valet at a Penske automotive owned Audi dealership I have driven anything from an Audi A1 to a GT R8. I test drive vehicles and deliver them up to 2 hours away. But this car... this is a monster, this is the exact year of S4 I would want.
I love this car, and I can say that out of the Honda(s)/Toyota/Buick/Mitsubishi that Ive owned audi has been by far the most reliable vehicles I have ever owned.
Was thinking of buying one between Audi A3, A4, S4 or Lexus IS 250..what would be your personal opinion ?
@@KingSten23 u looking for luxury or luxury/performance?
@@ralph02136 luxury for me
I'm an admirer of the A4/S4 (can't afford one yet). Great video!
the supercharger puts down instant torque
Sick lookin' S4 dude. Great work.
Main reason people say that German cars have reliability issues is because too many people don't maintain their vehicles. I change my Audi oil every 3k miles, all fluids flushed and changed every 2 years, etc. Take care of your vehicle and it will save you lots of money in the future. These German cars drive like a dream and the interiors are awesome. Yeah I could buy a cheap Toyota, but that's extremely boring! Mine has the 3.0 supercharged engine and it has been very good to me.
Here’s what it’s like to steal my title gag from a superior CZcamsr
Funny thing is that there is still more bolt on mods he can do and I'm sure he did to improve it further.
Love the titanium package. The only car I’d get other than the B7 RS4.
You need more cars like this
Definitely a cool car. Makes me want to enter my Sleeper Lincoln MKS for one of these.
I got one of these, love that car to death
In Norway Audies are a bankrobbers best friend 👍
Nice. Love the color. Well done bro
Carsalesmen: *slaps roof of Audi* *car now has 5 electrical issues unknown to the buyer* "THIS BABY WILL BURN OIL RIGHT AFTER 120,000 MILES"
Carsalesman: *slaps hand on roof*
"This baby even comes with indicators"
iroeky must never had an Audi just heard storys
iroeky If you watched enough Scotty q&a videos, you know there has been an issue with excessive oil consumption on 4 cylinder models ie the VW engine.
iroeky *Car sales man slap the roof of the Audi, the whole car falls apart*
Martin Evans 4-6 years?
Amazing ,,power is so smooth ,.beautiful car !!!
I want one of those S4's
Power Trip! I love it.
That is an Audi that I would get, and probably one of the better ones. Even better if well maintained.
Audi at 2:10 " *BEEP* SPEED LIMIT EXCEEDED " right as it was reaching at/over 80
Nice ride
That's a lot of hp for 3L!
Nice car
Nice car! The sound is amazing. Wish it came with stick shift, tho..
it does
Awesome car German technology is amazing! It feels that sense of power just watching it and the engine sounds talk by itself
I drive a truck just like that Tacoma you passed on the left. Hahaha. I'll never be that fast in my 4banger 2.7l
Very impressive!
Thanks Scotty 👍🏻
Scotty's next video on the S4, how to open up the transmission and fix it lol. I have a b8, 90k miles and a failed transmission 😢
Euromadics did you change the transmission fluid on time?
Those B8's were noterious for failing DSGs. The B8.5 remedy all of those failing issues.
Did you end up fixing it? My B8 S4 had mech failure at 90k. Did the repair kit myself for under 500 and im at 145k with no problems.
Best car I ever owned in terms of reliability
Sweet car, must be a blast to drive.
Rev up your engines 🏎💭💭💭💥
I see this dude on Doug Demuro’s channel
I have one of these cars in my bay right now. Has 84000 and is in pretty good condition. Road test was fun and the car handled well. Not a Audi fan but had alot of fun with the car....repairing it sucks but that's why I charged a little extra..;)
Love the rotor wheels. I have the 18" Alzor replicas on my b5 in matte grey. Get compliments all the time
Great ride till it needs repairs then you would need to put your left kidney on eBay in order to cover the cost
Payam yazdi
Hahahahaaaaa
Pretty much sums up German cars lol
The guy is probably rich and can afford them. Plus, its 2014. So his car is probably warrantied for 10 years(til 2024) or 100,000 miles
Agree... Im NOT rich at all, but I think I have enough to keep up with my love for cars.
I bought the same Audi for daily driver and 1 year later: bushes were torn ("not able" to drive straight [it is NOT alignment]), "oil pressure" light dont stop bugging if you really push the car (but car always works ok), no able to use VAGCOM's "hybrid readings", cannot fit 4 people with 5'10" height (or taller) if planning to drive for more than 1 hr (cabin is very small) cheap plastics (sun visors clips, sunroof cover, window switches, lock switches, rear armrest break very easy), "fast" but not fast (lost* against many stock 335i and similar cars), transmission "slips" on 1st gear on very hot days and or bumper to bumper traffic, upgrades are crazy expensive (except for the simplest upgrade of pulley), also, if you want professional installation you will not find many Audi experts and if you find one they will make your bank account bleed... and repairs... forget about it... like somebody said "have to sale your kidney in ebay" (love that analogy!!! 😂)
....but yes, is a very good looking car... when you say "that's my car" some people go 😮... Quattro is impressive on twisties and driving on roads with bad weather (here is when the * above does not apply, because most likely you will win [if you are brave enough to drive fast to not be ridiculed by others])... In other words, if you LOVE the car and have deep pockets, go for it, if not stay away from it.... there are other many cars that, althought they are not Audi, will give you way better performance and/or comfort/luxury for less price, less cost of maintenance, and more important, less headaches!!!!
Im an Audi fan (believe it or not) but next time I think about a used DAILY driver, it will be a Q50 Red Line or a Stinger, possibly a Genesis G70.
Non-daily-car: yes, you bet/you are absolutely right: A6 3.0 or R6 (I wish I could afford a RS7!!! 😁)
That’s any car.....
any newer car there is
Surprised this Audi doesn’t sound a little more deeper
Sweet car man, grats!
The guys got the side skirt package which is very rare
why does Scott Kilmer sound like an old school WWF Wrestler ? lol
This guy sounds like The Roman from RCR.
Is this 3.0 supercharged engine reliable? Could this be a daily driver? How many miles could you hope to get out of this before repairs become cost prohibitive?
210k on mine and no major repair costs. It takes a quart of oil every other week though
@@RemyISnowdamn!
@@RemyISnowhave you switched to liquimoly?
@@Dragunov302 No, just mobile1. It ended up being totaled after an accident at 230k miles. I bought a 2016 A6 3.0T with 98k miles and it currently has 135k miles with no oil consumption issues. The 3.0T is a very solid engine. I’d opt for the updated CREC version.
I like that sound...
I can understand the pride this guy has in his sporty Audi, but he just cannot credibly claim that the car is reliable, when he has owned it for only 1½ years. Still I give it to him, that he does the right thing by faithfully maintaining his fancy and exacting European sportsedan.
Martin Evans Ik my family has two Audi b8 A4s pre face lift and facelift model and they don’t have any of these problems like these Japanese auto fanboys are talking about. Literally all they talk about is reliability like stfu.
D Phantom97 I agree, also I have had Nissan's in the past and they have been complete crap with the warranty not wanting to cover any of the know and expensive problems and our government not doing anything about it
I've had me 2011 S4 for a few years. Regardless on what anyone say, keep up the maintenance and don't drive like a 15 year old spoiled brat all the time trying to be in a fast and furious movie and it lasts for a long time actually.
People who think they're unreliable have never owned one, or have ibky driven ones with poor maintenance. I have an s4 with 170k and its ran just as good as any car ive owned. My nee s3 after 60k just had basic maintaince.
Wow the engine bay is so clean.
Speed limit exceeded lol
I knew right away this was shot in Victorville, Ca on the 15 FWY Northbound to Vegas! Awesome car!
Owners of this car should check their radiator. If it's plastic, you'd better get that replaced soon. Because it will fail. Happened to my friends 2010 S4 Supercharger.
Nice car for sure!
Super nice 👍🏻 sounds great to!
This dude sounds like Roman from RCR.
Saw that car on las Vegas Craigslist
Beautiful Audi💯👍
I have this car...but the 2015 model. I'm gonna miss it. My lease is up soon.
Looks, Awesome.!!!!
Love it, and yeah tfsi burn oil but not so much and yes they can be pricey to repair but they won't break if you take care of them.
That under hood view of the rev sounded like a Dust Buster.
Yea it’s nice until the Gearbox malfunction light comes on. ☹️
What that set u back
Ya, how much does it cost
@@thewallstreetreaper4859 It's a 2015. So its unlikely to have the mechatronic issue. Its more prevalent in 2010, 11, 12, and some 13s. But if it does the repair kit and fluid, filters, etc would run around 500. The mechatronics repair kit fixes most peoples gearbox malfunction in the S4.
I DON'T WANNA BE A LORD OF THE RINGS EVEN FOR FREE 😁
lol after revving it up in park you have to wait a second before putting it in drive so it doesnt go "clunk" and if at a stop light somebody says "rev it up" you gotta say, "okay, its in drive, let me put it in neutral real quick" oh snap the lights green, back into drive....now i'll use my sportmatic tiptonic paddle shift gayness or my automatic shifter thats designed to have the appearance of a stick with its knob/boot, and i'll press the dorky +\- buttons,
Who else saw an Audi ad before this video?
