    • @AccentOnCars
      @AccentOnCars  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for watching! You’re right. I forgot diesels. Over here in the US not too many people buy diesel 😀
      The best is the 6-cylinder diesels. The diesel issues might be turbos (although rare), egr valves, timing chain (depending on the year). And other issues that any European car have: leaks, various sensors.
      In general 6 cylinder diesels are stronger.

    • @maxowen2591
      @maxowen2591 Před 3 lety +1

      One thing I do not necessarily agree with is the fuel mileage figures being "pretty close to what the manufacturer states". Here in the UK Audi claim that model will do around 38-42 mpg. The claims for the TDI are just as optimistic to say the least. Maybe Audi are more honest over there with regards expected fuel economy. Let's be honest, as lovely as Audis are, the companys track record with honesty is, error, dubious to say the least🤔😉

    • @AccentOnCars
      @AccentOnCars  Před 3 lety

      Yeah, they got burned pretty badly a couple of years ago 😀
      When I review VW Atlas I noticed fuel economy wasn’t great. They have to be more accurate now 😀

      +Great noise supression in the cockpit. I sometimes fail to hear the engine (it works quite smooth)
      +Love the looks (subjective I guess, but I always wanted this car)
      +The steering wheel has insane precision.
      Mods: 19' wheels, tinted windows
      The width of the car is higher, it marginally fits in my yard parking
      No issues with oil burning as with TFSIs 2009-2011, everything looking good inside out so far.
      P.S. I am coming from a 2004 - A4 1.8 cabriolette which had 145.000km on it so I guess it is a huge change.

    • @AccentOnCars
      @AccentOnCars  Před 3 lety +1

      2018 has it’s pros and cons. It’s made in Mexico. Whether that’s a good thing or not is up for discussion. It offers significantly more tech and optional active suspension. 2.0 TFSI i-4 engine is conceptually the same, but has been improved a lot. I assume it will be similarly reliable and unreliable as previous TFSI. But those are good engines overall.
      Cons: they ditched the brilliant 8 speed automatic for 7 speed dual clutch. It shifts faster and contributes to higher mpg, but there is no way it will be as reliable as the previous ZF 8 speed. They switched to the so called quattro ultra which is not a constant AWD as the previous Quattro was. Most won’t notice the difference, but the older quattro with the torsen diff was great.
