The Cabriolet is now available with all-wheel drive, while all A4s now come standard with a tire-pressure monitoring system, revised steering wheels and two-stage airbags. The 1.8T models have been upgraded with 16-inch aluminum wheels and now offer a six-speed manual transmission as an option.

Pros:
  • Classy, well-constructed interiors, sharp handling, precise steering, available CVT transmission and all-wheel drive.
Cons:
  • Price goes up quickly with options, engines short on low-end torque, sport package makes for a choppy ride.

  • Buyer Beware - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    The car is good in the snow with the Quattro system - however, the build quality of this car makes it the worst car I have ever owned. 2 new transmissions in the first year and numerous visits to the dealer to correct squeaks and body trim falling off. Buy another make car!

  • A4 Conv - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    when i was looking at conv to buy i looked at all choices and i so wanted the Bmw but after i drove the Audi all that changed. Audi gives u a 4 yr 50,000 mile warranty which covers everything except tires. that alone is a great thng to have. I also own a Bmw at the moment and would def like to trade it in the near future. the overall service from Audi Customer Relations and The purchasing dealer have been great. Its great to get into a Audi loaner as well when u come for Service not a Enterprise Escort when u have Bmw And Benz.

    This is the best car i have ever owned. It was great in the snow, handled well. Its just as much fun in other climates as well. a sleek stylish design that turns heads!

  • Dont Buy an Audi - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    My Audi has serious electrical problems (every headlight, tail light, turn signal and now the regulator which controls my power window - $350 to replace - has been replaced at least once) and Audi USA and the dealer dont seem to care. I get "it happens to every car" - not any that I owned in the past (Japanese). Theyre great looking cars and fun to drive, but need too much up-keep for the price. Think of something else before purchasing unless you dont mind dishing out hundreds of $$$ every couple months on things that should never go wrong let alone within the first couple months of owning a brand new, showroom floor car.

  • Would do it again..despite roof problems - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    I wanted a fast fun car for a reasonable price and got it. Had serious issues with the convertible top not working and it took SIX WEEKS during the Indian Summer for the dealer to fix it (more of an issue of the dealers inability to fix a problem properly). Other than that issue, everything else has been great with the car. I have the sports package which Id forget if I did it all over again (too many potholes and bumpy roads in the metropolitan area). At the end of the day, I do have to say that I still love this car.

  • best car!! - 2004 Audi A4

    this has been the best car ever. compared to a the smaller engine bmw which the audi tops that and the 1.8t is all the power you need. its great to drive and fun. and you get the good looks!

  • Excellent car! - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    The Quattro performance in wet and snow conditions are excellent. The conner handling is pretty good as well.

  • Solid - Tremendous - Worthy - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    Extremely pleased. Took delivery of the A404 in Oct 03. My first new car, from NYC where my car was the 8th Ave A train - big improvement. Superbly appointed interior. Audi overlooks nothing - slow release overhead door handles, gradual dome light dimmer, back seat HVAC vents, subtly lit door handles and ashtrays, ambient light over the center console. Sound system a bell from Mozart to Metallica. Truck and glove have huge appetite. Engine pep is there when you need it regardless of the lag aforementioned in previous reviews - great deep roar when you key the ignition makes you feel good every morning. Treat yourself and your passengers.

  • Not worth the $$$$$ - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    I was looking at the "new VW Jetta" at the time, and to get all the things that I wanted cost more that the Audi. Common sense told me to get the Audi instead. I had my car for 7 months with no problems. I was at a stop light when it happened. The light turned green and I stepped on the gas, and the car would not move. The check engine light was one, the car was running, but it wouldnt move. After countless trips to the dealer and being told that the car was fixed (and it wasnt) I had to get rid of it. I hated doing it too. I loved the design of the car, the bose xm radio, tiptronic, and the pure fun to drive feeling. When the car works its great, but when it didnt...
