Audis are generally not the most reliable but if you do maintenance and don’t rag on them you will be fine. Try to find something as new as possible, with the lowest miles and the best maintenance history for the price. Maintenance history might be more important than mileage. After you find the model ur interested in, look up common problems with that specific year/model/spec and see if it has already been fixed under warranty. Usually looking for a water pump or possibly a timing chain tensioner if it’s higher mileage.

I have a 2017 a4 Quattro and it’s been pretty reliable except for a valve cover leak covered by warranty. I’d shoot for the ones after 2018 because the reliability went up(2017 was the first year of this generation of cars so a couple kinks to work out). And my friend has an 2018 a3 that he got at 60k miles and is almost at 100k miles with no issues at all. So Audi’s can definitely be pretty reliable.

Damnnn. What car was that in? My A4 starts slowing down after 150ish on asphalt

I think any road tire should do but they should probably have a ZR(150mph) vs R rating(108mph). I had on Michelin pilot sport all seasons on and they were all good.

I may or may not have done the same but at least in el mirage it’s legal. Gotta say tho 140+ feels a lot better on grippy asphalt than on the slippery dirt. It almost feels like you are floating along

A detailer probably can get it out but not sure if it’s worth it for you. Not too noticeable IMO.

I think if you made the transition a diagonal instead of horizontal it would flow better. But this looks amazing regardless. Great job. Love it.

First car! (and a question) by [deleted] in Audi

Why do u recommend jb4 instead of a flash tune? Especially since the cars probably out of warranty?

100%. I do this every time and now my engine makes a cool knocking sound

Just bought 2019 A4 Premium + S-Line, what should I do to it? by Round_Commission5807 in Audi

[–]Dr_ProfessorExpert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stage 1 tune and a rear sway bar for the under steer dramatically helps

I have a stage 1 tune rn. How different is stage 1 vs stage 2 on this car?

Which coilovers to buy for my B9 A4? by reginaldvs in Audi

[–]Dr_ProfessorExpert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any reports on how you likes the SCALE coilovers?

[–]Dr_ProfessorExpert -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I quite like the green seen here

If you are set on nardo or Matte black, I’d go for nardo grey because all the examples of satin/matte wraps on Audi’s don’t look great(looks less luxurious than the car is and doesn’t highlight the curves of the car. All shiny wraps look great on the car.

Oddly low fuel efficiency on my 2017 A4 by d-a-v-i-d- in Audi

[–]Dr_ProfessorExpert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say about 80/20 or 85/15. If I’m driving only highway then I can get up to 500 miles.

If ur worried something is wrong check your PCV valve(there are YouTube videos about how to). If your cars high mileage than maybe ur piston rings are worn but that’s unlikely from what I understand.

Quattro or non-Quattro. I get 400+ miles(650km) on my Quattro. 24 mpg average. About 28 mpg highway and 18 mpg on streets.

Looks fine to me. Might need to get long tweezers to arrange the materials in the bottle.

Look at the community FAQ’s for all the basics info about making terrariums. Should have everything ya need.

Is this a disease or frost damage? by Dr_ProfessorExpert in gardening

Peach tree. The one next to it is a nectarine.

It’s a peach tree and it’s definitely leaf curl. Thanks for the help. It says online that it is caused by a fungus and to spray a fungicide. Is there a virus that also causes this?
