Which is The Most Reliable Audi? (Don't Buy an Audi Until You Watch This!) 

how many kiltometers did you have on 2009 audi did you have any issues, oil consumption, timing belt ect, i am looking to get a 2009 or 2010 A4 or A5 but am worried

@@davealmeida9786 So I had A4 B8 2008 Sedan with 2.0TDI Automatic Multitronic 6 speed gearbox. Car is super reliable and easy to service alone such as oil and filter change and brake discs and brakes themselves but the only issue is if you wanna change rear discs you need a mech because if you take them off your e break will lock. Other than that i had no problem. Never burned oil. I had the same oil for yearly service to the next service. City drive is around 5 or 6 liters but crusing on highway for few hours and it wont go over 4 liters per 100km. I had it with 240 000km and on Audis 2.0tdi you have to swap belt once you go 190 000kms so thats pretty good. Seats are perfect for long ride but get Proline not S line. If you are not able to afford it you can go with Passat instead, you could say it is a cheaper version of audi. Just a little worse paintjob and interior is not that great but the seats are comfy.. and the downgrade from Passat would be Skoda Octavia, same thing but cheaper matherials.

Thanks so much for the info! I was afraid to buy older then 2014 cause i heard of issues- i may consider getting an older one

Wrong

@@todoelmundoapesta well okay.. all of them are good besides 1.8L ones. its proven

well have one from 2009, 200000 km by date, 150000 driven by me, no changes to the motor or to the car except for the usual things. No idea what to say I must be lucky.

Oil leak problems😢worst

Love you auto bum haha

Lol. I now understand him. Thanks 😂

lol! thank you

Thsnks dude now I understand 😂😂

Just returning 5 months after I watched this video to thank you.

Wait the car body is bulletproof?

@@kt.718 he meant the engine

Same fore the c7 a6 3.0t same car just a sc pretty much bulletproof if you do regular maintenance only thing I heard have failed was the pvc valve and doing a trans service at 100k should run forever

@@kt.718 there is bullet proof option for the A8 tho

not realy if you know what you are buying..

What the name of that beat fuck the car😂

Wdym

Like all car makes!

Me too, I've got the Avant Le Mans limited edition.

Is the A6 still serving you well?

They used to be solid and well made.

That was long time ago...now they plastic crap...

@@paulogomes1679 Like all cars.....at least they are still using good non plastic parts, unlike BMW.

800k km? I didn't know that *any* car could survive that many km!

vintage/old Audis mercedes volkswagens and porsche are great cars. the really new models of audi avant looks good.

How regularly you change oil on your multi tronic gearbox?

dudu dudu I change my Transmission oil every 35 000 km. Normally my mechanic says it can go with 40 000 but I don’t like waiting for the last moment .

I guess as long as you take care of your audi, you should be ok, I'm looking to buy a q7 2017, hope a get lucky

i hope you didnt went with that goal.. :( next step from 1.9 should be 3.0 tdi but if im wrong, and 2.0 did well, let me know

Glad to hear. I got a 2007 A4 (also a B7) approaching 200,000 miles (US) Car runs great and paid next to nothing for it. Just did cam follower/tensioner and timing belt.

I have a a4 with a timing chain issue its not anything serious but i jus want to know is it worth it 293 km on it

What about an A5 from 2019 or 2021 with a 2.0 TFSI engine?

Thanks

My uncle drove an A6 avant c5 from 2003 with the 2.4 gasoline engine and 170hp. I was amazing drove it only twice :( He felt that a problem is coming the tiptronic was going down after 185.000km. Kinda sad tbh I liked the car lot and it had a sunroof :D But like I said kinda sad that it had problems after 185.000km only..

It a new engine. Of course it will be reliable. Just wait a few more years and the problems will roll in.

@@robbym3542 No motor is bulletproof. All I'm saying is that any known issues from the earlier variant have been revised and its supporting components with known failures have been replaced.

The I reckon you 100% correct! I start with a 2000 a4 b5 non turbo years ago no major issues and now I've recently gotten back into the game with a 2000 a4 1.8t quattro and I must say very well build quality especially compared to my last audi which was a 2003 allroad. I reckon it's cause they over engineered them back then and we're made in Germany and not south Africa it was the peak of audi quality. I'm glad your on the same pages as me

90k miles on my 3.2 and nothing so far... hopefully nothing happens anytime soon

@@itsreverse4237 170.000 3000 € for timing chain problem

That's scary. I have now over 110 miles with my 3.2, 2010 Q5 and no such issues yet. Only major problem is the cost to change one of the back shocks (recommended to do both instead of one). It may be time for me to sell it before even changing the shocks! My Audi A6 has less than 50k miles so no issues so far but still under warranty. From what I saw the S series are reliable (S6), so may look into that series.

Matthew Song Loong the v8 has all sorts of issues with some requiring to take the whole bloody engine out!

He did

He did

Do u know what is the most reliable A8 ever ? I guess it is either 2013 or 2014 ! But not sure . It tends to be 2013 supercharge V6

@@yazeedoro what about 2.0 Liter in the S3

I have had 2 x 4.2V8s one was an S5 the other an 04 Touareg. Both very reliable.

True words in The Land Of The Free™, a funny joke everywhere else. 🙏

Does yours burn oil? Or did they fix that on the newer models? I'm driving a 2012 a4 and putting in a quart every 1000 km's.... the book even states its normal, oh well!

2nd generation A6 is the worst Audi has produced :/

I have a 2002 S6 Avant second owner no problem I moved to Europe with it from America, and I also have a 2003 A4 Avant love that car 250,000 miles

@@Will3ist As far as reliability and working on it, it's a great car. But you absolutely need the right engine and then tend to the rust prevention/management. The facelifted C5 had many of the first problems ironed out such as the front suspension being a flimsy joke.

Micky M I’m looking at 97 Audi A6 found it for 800 bucks

thats great but i wonder why did you go for 420 hp car with i guess no experience for a first car

This nigga I found you

and after that you got your license too,huh?

Wow - that's sure disappointing.

no, its abit limited. I drive an A7 and only A7 owners wave. Never A6/A4/A3/Q7/Q5 XD

Like bus drivers then

Darth Vader's theme, the copyright free version.

Tiptronic.

Problems with the rear lights. The intensity weakens over time due to some thin cables. The 1.8 TFSI engine sucks. Problems with the instrument cluster at 146,000km from an Audi TT from 2007.

I had a Audi A4 2.0tfsi 2006 model, and it drank oil like crazy I had a 2.0 fsi A3 before that the N/A version and that car was bullet proof.

My dad has a Skoda Octavia mk2 from 2005 with a 1.9 TDi and it has 200,000km. We bought it brand new and no problenms so far. Audi/Seat/Skoda/Volkswagen have 90% the same engines and transmissions. Audi is the premium segment of Volkswagen, but you will find most problems with 1.2 tfsi /1.8 tfsi / 2.0 tfsi (or TSI) in the entire VW Group as well. I will consider another video on this topic. Thanks!

+99Vehicles TV thanks 🙂

1.9 w gnoju 350,000 mil/560,000 km skubanyyy

I don't know if you watch car throttle but they've got a Octavia with 430000 miles on it and it's running perfect I recommend having a look🙂

Did you buy the rs7 yet?

I always advice people to NOT buy BMWs especially with over 200.000km (I'm a mechanic and repair those craps). They are notorious for having many expensive issues, like all models. 4cyl models stretch and break chains, 6cyl models are best, but have both chain, VANOS, valvetronic and oil consumption issues on some 2000's models. V8 are just too expensive to maintain if you take it to a garage, not to talk about V10 or V12 models. And I wouldn't call them better handling in any way.

yas and no

@@filip-pi9hy just yes, it is

@@tommior9553 They have many salty sensors and is a very oil eater, the 2.8 is FAR better

I do not know if this is still needed for you, but dont confuse the A4, A5 and Q5 2.0 TFSI engines with the A6 TFSI engine, the engine with the oil consumption problem is called EA-113, and is used in the A4, A5 and Q5, the A6 TFSI engine is a BPJ engine, which do not have the problem - anyways, the problem should have been fixed after 2012, so if you're looking at an A4, A5 or Q5, the oil consumption problem shouldn't be there, but keep in mind, you can always be unlucky.

My wife has ‘15 A4 and doesn’t burn a drop, nothing added between 4-5k oil changes.

What year was your A6

The 5 generations (a5 s5 rs5) are very unreliable but the one you are looking at could be in good shape so just letting you knows

@@RS-ABSOLUTE what about a 2018 a4??

@@prod.offline yes it’s is almost double the rating of the Audi S5

@@RS-ABSOLUTE so it's very reliable or not, what goes wrong wjth these cars ,sorry I ask all this cuz I'm gonna check one out what should I ask about the engine??

Any older 5 cylinder audi is the definition of sound, power, and reliability for boost :)

Got a 1983 100 C3 1.9 5 pot... Boy I love it...

Simeon botev nice my dad has a 1990 c3 avant 2.2

The 2.5TDI inline 5 is as solid as it gets, the same as older 1.9TDI but with an extra cylinder pretty much. The pump is reversed tho and it has the pump drive at the back of the camshaft.

Yes, I wonder why this was not mentioned, as it has no known serious issues even at high mileage, no oil consumption or chain issues, but the 6,3W12 that is much rarer is mentioned. I'm on my second A8L W12, both fantastic cars and engines. And as said, most V6/V8 FSI engines have chain issues more or less. Some even as low as under 100.000km. Many A8/Q7 on the market with replaced 3,0/4,2TDI engines around 200.000km, often due to chain issues, especially 2011-> the 3,0TDI is known for leaking coolant and chain problems.

SQ5 are bulletproof. Engine is overbuilt and the 8 speed Zf is quick. X4 are BMW and depending witch engine you choose you can have some oil issues and the famous gasket problems all BMW have ( their gaskets are cheap and tend to fail quicker than other brands) hope that helps

Giovanni Olomo get the sq5 . Audi is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but their reliability is higher than a bmw

Yes. It's fine.

Hell no

I gotta a4 09 engine is shot its 2.0l started with oil leak then engine went dead

Get the 3.0TDI, better in every single aspect except tax.

Cam chains would worry me at that millage. Should be OK if oil changed regularly but listen out for chain rattle..

Damon Gaven too much leaking oil. Other than that yes pretty bullet proof from my years of using 4.2 06 A6

Mine leaked too.

Audi S3 or s4, for between 24 and 28k you can get a s3 or s4 with fairly low miles and possibly CPO. Tunable and parts are hugley common, especially the A3 and S3 since they are on the same platform as the VW Golf/GTI/GOLF R

Great car. Just use a preventative strategy for GDI inlet port coking. This approach is working fine: halved the nominal engine oil change intervals, use 100% PAO based engine oil and employ CRC GDI inlet cleaner before oil change.

Thats just how you treat them And how its combination transmision and engine they all good but they have issues like a all cars

Listen!.....Americans are lazy! Plain and simple, especially when it comes to automotive maintenance. European cars were not built with us in mind, we don't want to do "nothin" for maintenance, then we cry like babies and bad-mouth when they breakdown! Japanese cars are specifically made for Americans. They know we are just some lazy asses!

Maybe if you live in America, your models are not built by germans. Maintenance is cheap and they have better build quality here in Europe.

I would def avoid the 4.0, the 3.0 is bulletproof.

Am doua canale :))

Yes because 90% of people think that Castrol is the God of engine oils so they use that all the time. And they are complaining about it's overpricing. Personally, I dislike castrol just because of its hype. And it has way better alternatives for a more reasonable price. Just use a good brand of motor oil like Mobil, Eneos, Eni, Total etc. Just check the performance levels and manufacturer approval. Those are the only thing to look for. I own an Audi A4 1.6 (B5) and I run it with Mobil 10W40. Because the VW standard covers 5W40, 5W30, 10W40 etc SAE markings, you have the freedom of choice. My car is an early model from 1999, it as 266k kms, eats 1-2 deciliters of oil every 700km or so. But hey, every VW enginde does that. I changed from 5W40 to 10W40 because the 5W lasted only 5000km-s. Little 1.6 ate it.

delfino8989 there's a recall on the piston rings on certain 2.0 audi engines. I've never heard anything about the oil being the culprit..
