Any Audi is the Best Audi as long as you take care of it. I went from 2009 A4 to 2014 A6 Avant but every time i see an Audi driver I wave them with respect, no matter if its an old or new. I love all Audis.
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
I like how fast you talk man, its smooth and to the point! Thanks for the great content
had my 2005 a4 1.9 TDI for 6 years and the engine is great , switching to a a4 2.0 TDI 2010 now and hoping for the same good impression.
the A4 modells are great cars .
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
I had one Audi A4 2005, mileage 312000km and I didn’t change or check the gearbox.. and the engine was working very well,, really great car. Thanks 🙏
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.
Dont know who needs to hear this, but stay away from 2.0TFSI engines brefore 2013.Thank me later
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
Great explanation. Also it’s soothing for some reason.
Excellent video and to the point. The summary at the end is helpful.
Wow! You should be doing more videos like this. Thanks a lot man!
Have an Audi A6 3.0 TDI. The torque in that thing is INCREDIBLE. Car is so smooth, roomy, and comfortable. An excellent cross-country tourer!
Me too, I've got the Avant Le Mans limited edition.
Is the A6 still serving you well?
We had a 04 A6 4.2. Everyone's like "Oh the transmissions suck!" "Oh, the timing chain issue is a pain!" We owned the car since 08 and never touched anything. Car was sold and still runs and drives great!
I used to have an 2004 A3 2.0 TDI same colour as yours and I loved that car so much!
I own a 2008 a4 with a 2.7 TDI Multitronic . Haven’t had any issues . Car sits at 270 000 km at the moment and still going strong :)
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
When it comes an audi, it can be hit or miss.
not realy if you know what you are buying..
What the name of that beat fuck the car😂
Wdym
Like all car makes!
Great info. Thanks.
I’ve always loved Audis but never owned one. Just got my first and it’s old but was babied it’s whole life and has low miles. I Feel like I’m really starting to get it. These cars have character and stand out!
So basically from my experience as an Audi owner, the c7 s6/s7 is bulletproof, though there are turbo issues.I recommend upgrading the turbos to the RS6/RS7 Turbos, due to the fact that they can handle a lot of power and are much bigger.
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
Play it at 0.75x speed.
Thank me later.
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.
I have had 3 A6’s and an S5 v8.
I have had 3x 3.0l TDI’s the latest is a 2015 twin turbo. They have all been great. Especially the TT.
1.9L Miles from CarTrottle
420k miles “High Mileage Hero”
I had a Audi 80 diesel, bulletproof car engine, did 800k km plus with no mechanic needs, the body, damn that thing could go head to head with any truck and it would leave scratchless. What a car :D, AUDI 80, slow as a snail, but hard as a nail.
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.
Thanks for the vid! Curious about the list that you posted @3:29 - how did you come up with the list, and should we truly avoid variants that aren't on the list?
Also, looking a bit further, some of the info you mention seem to conflict with your recommended list. For instance, you mention the 3.2 FSI as one of the most reliable petrol engines @1:26. You then get into transmissions and mention @2:42 that the multitronic CVT has some issues, with the Tiptronic autos being far superior. Yet, in your recommendations for bulletproof Audis you list for the A4 the 2.0 TDI which only comes with CVT, yet leave out the A4 3.2 FSI Quattro with Tiptronic? Just curious as to why this was so. Thanks!
Great review
Nice and informative video :) I have A3 TDI 6spd DSG (2005, 140hp), A6 C6 2.7 TDI manual (2005, 190hp) and im just buying A5 3.0 TFSI.. I hope A5 will prove great like first two cause A3 and A6 are amaizing :)) classy AF cars with reliable engines :))
3:27
Thanks
My 1,8T A6 engine with a manual is FANTASTIK, 20 years old. No issues what so ever other than services. I will keep it until I buy an EV, a Tesla or Audi E-tron.
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..
this is a lot to take in, super great detailed video.. what are your thoughts on 2018 S5 TFSI 3.0 tiptronic?
Really helpful video
Hi can you do a video about the entire group as i have a skoda and audi in the past i have owned a volkswagen and never had a seat. I am extremaly happy about the skoda octavia i have 2004 1.9tdi ot has 350,000 miles !!!! (I live in the uk) really good car and i have also just bought the 1.9tdi audi a3 2009 it has 105hp it doesnt feel like enough to me tho😕 as you can see i am a fan of german cars and my dream car is a rs7 but what are the chances any time soon as this car is extremaly expensive .🙂 by the way awesome channel hope to see more content soon as i am a subscriber of yours👍
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 must say that anything between 1998 -2001 is more reliable, I have a 2001 A6 2.8, yes I know it’s about 20 years old but the previous owner took great care of it and I recently bought it at only 100,000 miles I have to say it was a lucky find but the car is really smooth, all electric in the car works perfect sound system is amazing, as long as you keep up with ur oil changes and you know how to do your own diagnostics it’s a great car
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
Great Video : What you suggest in 3.0 TDI tiptronic quatro I mean how much km should I buy maximum with ? I mean how long they run usually reliable ?
Great information, thank you! My previous cars have all been Honda . I'm considering getting a used 2018 A6 premium plus or Prestige with the 3.0 engine. Anything I should be aware of? Also, will I be able to do any basic maintenance on my own? Thanks.
Hmm, what are problems specific to Audi TT models from 2006 forward with 2.0 TFSI engine?
Is the thing about problems with injector coils a myth?
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.
I would really like to know your thoughts on the SQ5. I am trying to decide vs the BMW X4..
Thanks
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
My 2014 Q5 2.0 TFSI running great after 70k miles. The oil consumption issue was resolved in 2012.
thats great thank you pal ,merci fain spor la treaba, cind ne faci un review la audi s7 3.0tdi??
I heard that 3,2 or 4,2 FSI can have issues, I believe 3,2 was timing chain...
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!
Good video thanks I've heard that 2.7 and 3.0 engines are extremely reliable and the oil consumption is super low, the one thing I don''t wanna do is buy a car with a big oil consumption, its super annoying especially on long journeys. I will sub and like.
thanks man !!!
Hey there! Can you share any specific experience/knowledge regarding the 2017-2018 Audi S6 (C7)? What are the most common issues? What is the overral reliability? Thanks in advance!

I've been thinking to buy an audi s5/s4 2011 can u please review it regarding the maintenance and the common problems. Thanks 😊
Vâlcea style ! Mișto engleza ta și felicitări pentru video ! 👏
Great Vid.... if you had to pick between A6, A7 or A8 all 3.0L tdi Quattro, in your professional opinion for reliability which one would top the list? Thanks
I never considered an Audi until I drove a 13 s4. I've been doing research and considering options. Often times older s4s and s5s show up in the price range I'm considered with less than 130k km. My concerns for the 4.2l is the timing components. This engine has taming components on both ends, so it must be pulled to service them.
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.
audi reliability has gone up pretty significantly on the 2017+ TFSI engines
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.
Great video. I'm looking to buy an A8 or S8 2013-2017. What do you recommend?
Great video! I'm looking at a 2008 Audi A4 1.8 Tfsi Cvt Multitronic not sure what to expect it's just hit 200k km so wondering if it would be a lot of problems
Will be picking up a 2013 S5 manual in the near future. I guess it's good since the S made it in your good list.
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

Damn, that intro beat goes HARD!!🔥😤
What are your opinions about the TFSI engines starting with 2013?
I've heard that oil consumptions problems were pretty much fixed.
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.
Great video mate, keep it up! I’m thinking of buying an A7 3.0TDI. I have a 1.9 TDI A3 and it has never let me down. Can you tell me what exactly I should look out for.
Whats the engine code on your a3 TDI ?
Would a 2012 Audi A6 3.0 with the 8speed be considered reliable? It has become one of my favorite cars and I want to purchase one but am worried it will bring me more problems. Please advise me.
People who say he’s speaking too fast listen too low
You started talking about the 2.0 TFSI engine, but keep in mind, that there is A LOT of different variants of this engine, the oil consumption problem is only relevant on the EA-113 engine, which is used in the Audi A4, A5 and Q5. The rest of the 2.0 TFSI engines are used in models such as the A6, which uses an BPJ engine, which is pretty much a bullet proof engine, it can have a timing chain problem, but nothing pricey.
Just wanted to clarify, so people don't get afraid of buying a 2.0 TFSi engine from VW/AUDI.
If you're looking at an Audi A4, A5 or Q5 from 2004-2012, my advice would be, stay away, and get an A6 or similar, if you absolutely want the TFSi engine.
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?
I love my 2016 Q5 premium!! Running strong !!!!!!💪🏽💯I need the A7 as well !
Hi whats your opinion of the 2013 Audi A7 3.0 tfsi with 150000km ? I would like to get one but doesnt know that how reliable it is . What do you think about the 2013 Audi A7 3.0 biTDI is it a great car or the TFSI is a much better choise ?
Audi 80 B4 1.9TDI is also a super reliable and bulletproof car !
Good stuff and you seem legit. My A6 3.2 was bullet proof, 256,000 miles (412,000 KM). I would like your opinion on something. Of these three which would you recommend? 2018 Audi S5, 2014 Audi S8, or 2015 Porsche Cayman and maybe 2016 Porsche Panamera 4?
What year was your A6
GREAT video! Thank you. I’m an American who is moving back to Europe. When I lived there before, I owned an Audi A3. I’d like to get one again. HOWEVER, I’d love your expert opinion on comparable Skoda and VW models to the A3. Thank you!
I bought A brand new 2015 Audi A4 quattro 2.0T Its now 2019 I Love the car but I've changed
#1 stock front Rotors warped 2 times already at 30k miles and 65k miles (upgraded to slotted and drilled now)
#2 motor mounts at 70k miles
#3 valve cover gasket at 75k miles
Hope this helps just know Audi will charge a lot to do these jobs. I work on the car myself now and Ive saved a lot of money. Beats paying $300 for a simple oil change.
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!
If you want more from a car get a BMW (but not the new x1 or other FWD platform), Jaguar or a Mercedes in the same price range. They are not necessarily faster or more capable but a good balance is always a plus. Audi's are not bad at all but they screwed the weight distribution. Also specialists are not impressed by the steering feedback. But other than that they are fine.
I'm not particularly a BMW fan although I own two. I appreciate other models as well like the audi A5 3.0 or S with the sport differential and torque vectoring that also looks very well, or decent sports cars honda s2000, mazda mx5, ginetta g40, lotus elise, westfield. As for SUVs there is the jag F pace and AR stelvio that do more than just being premium SUVs. Also the P. Macan is good but that's getting expensive and probably expensive maintenance.
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.
B5 1.9tdi :)
i had a3 2002 1.9 tdi 130 hp plus map and it was a beast so much fun for drive and never disappoints.after that audi is my all time brand and ive got 2012 a6 3.0 tdi
Thanks. I will make sure I take care of the transmission in my S5 3.0 V6 convertible. Its brilliant. Pity it have the manual option. All the best............
What about the older engines for example the r5 2.1l - 2.3l and 2.5tdi in the c3 and c4 audi 100/a6
Any older 5 cylinder audi is the definition of sound, power, and reliability for boost :)

I really appreciate your feedback
Thanks again.
So why is the 2006 Audi A6 4.2 Quattro not bulletproof?
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.
A8 6.0 W12 is a solid engine
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.
Im planning to buy a Audi A7 3.0TDI or 2.8fsi. Which do you advies. And do you have any tips to keep in mind while buying it or useing it?
Regarding the 3.2L. Is it a solid engine? Does it burn oil like the 2.0T? Would you recommend just doing the upper timing chain tensioner ONLY? I heard it's not necessary to do the chains or lower guide? What do you think. Thanks
i had a 2003 A6 with the 4.2 liter, I bought it 4 years old with 38k miles on it. Beautiful ride...BUT reliability wise..the worst car ever.It was a piece of crap.

@@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.

3 years now with it. No issues at all. 170 hp. Fast like a wind and perfect. Yes it is hungry a bit but perfect.
audi a6 c7 3.0 TFSI?
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.

I have a mk7 GTi i purchased in 2017 brand new. I probably put 6400km each year. What should be my oil change intervals timewise? Every 6months or once a year? Driving is mostly 60% city and 40% highway.
Nice stuff dude. Imi place ca le-ai zis "bulletproof" 😂 Fain.
Audis used to be amazing cars....now they break and leak oil during the first year.
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.
A mention on this, I have a 2015 2.0tdi Audi A6, DPF failed at 70k (Common fault according to audi) they also look for cool $3000 to replace them which isn't great, on top of that the actuators also are notorious for failing which can now only be calibrated by Audi who also recommend replacing the turbo when this fails along with the N75 valve, they have also had recalls on injectors failing. If you are buying a new diesel Audi beware of the above before buying.
Wow - that's sure disappointing.
DPF delete , problem solved forever :D
How do you feel about an 2013-2015 Audi A5 Quattro Premium Plus 2.0t? Like is it worth the buy with 65-95k on the engine?
Hello, I‘m interested in a 2.0 TFSI A5 B8 Sportback. I heard a lot about the oil comp. issues. Has Audi fixed them in a certain year or is it very hard to find a good one? I‘d get myself a 2.0 TDI but Diesels unfortunately have no future anymore. I really like my a3 8P 1.9TDI. A lot of torque and fuel comp. is sooooo low 😱😍
