    I currently have a 2007 Audi a4 that's 6 sp and I absolutely love it, I have had zero problems since I bought the car. but I do have to say that if you are buying an Audi a4 make sure that the previous owner took good care of it

      Mine just got towed home 5 minutes ago , broke down on the highway after getting it back from the mechanic…. Lol just bad luck with mine, absolutely love the car but mine in specific probably wasn’t taken great care of in its previous life.

    @JESUSSYD Před 2 lety +14

    Had mine since 2011. No issues at all if you are a bit handy and some period maintenance. As long as you keep an eye on the Cam Follower, N75, N80, PCV, and Diverter you should be fine.
    Cabin filter (passenger side) and MAF should also be cleaned periodically..... and OIL CHANGE !
    Good luck

    bought one of these a few months ago. absolutely love the thing. had a few issues upon purchase but i just think the dude before me had no idea what he was doing. only problem i've ever had is my transmission being loose due to a hacked clutch job, from the previous owner as mentioned. everything else has been amazing. swapped from a 2016 fiat 500x to my audi a4 quattro and have not had second thoughts. better mileage, more mechanical aspects to the car.. and did i forget to mention a turbo? the flutter is worth all the pain.

    Condensation in the vents is causing that mildew smell. To fix, turn off the A/C and crank the heat up to 100%, fan blowing 100%. Drive around for 10minutes like this. Smell should be reduced or gone.

    Its all about how previous owners have treated it with the B7's. I have an 06 2.0T Quattro that I just picked up. Only 140K Km's and looks like and drives like it just rolled up from Germany. Previous owner was an Audi Master Tech from Europe who knew his stuff and loved maintaining / detailing it any chance he got. Previous love is key with these cars.

    I had a 2006 B7 A4 with 3.0 diesel Quattro.These are the last of the 'real Quattro's' (Torsen vs Haldex) Worst repair was injector replacement twice @ 3,500€ a time. This was after 11 yrs and about 80K km (50K miles) . The xenon head light ballasts kept failing, but everything else was amazing. Best handling daily driver I have had. Now I have a 2017 B9 A4 Quattro with 2.0 diesel and it just does not feel as tight or handle as well! - Excellent drivers car!

    I just bought a 2006Audi A3 with 100,000 miles on it, I’m beginning to think I made a big mistake, instrument cluster doesn’t work, ac doesn’t blow cold, steering is stiff, the mass air flow sensor needs to be replaced, there is a clicking sound sometimes, but somehow the thing still turns on and drives, but I wonder how long it’ll keep going
