  5 years of A4 3.0 AWD - 2004 Audi A4
  By roadman - March 23 - 11:45 am

  Excellent car overall. The original tires Pirrelli 4 season are problems. Had side wall bubbles on all 4. Car has been to the garage only for maintenance and to replace the headlight washer cover which fell off twice. 85,000 miles so far. Also problem with wheels, they tend to hit the curbs when parallel parking due to the curve of the wheel they stick out from the tire. They get scrapped easily. Everything else is awesome, Id buy another.

  Major Let Down - 2004 Audi A4
  By AKA4 - February 26 - 1:04 pm

  Bought this car used July 4th, 2008. Immaculate condition. No dents, no scraps, everything worked! One month into it, the auto leveling headlghts malfunctioned, power windows failed, Pirelli tires were awful! Then, coil packs failed, engined missfired and had to be towed away! Rattles galore! I love the engine sound, interior style, material quality and over all subtle style. If youre gonna buy this car buy a good after market warranty, and have it inspected thouroughly before purchasing!

  I am a little dissapointed with some of the interior squeeks. But over all the car has been perfect.

  My new Audi - 2004 Audi A4
  By abarge - December 9 - 2:00 am

  Chock full of features and power. The 6-speed manual is a blast, but the engine could use more low-end torque; its a little slow off the line and it hits a noticeable peak at around 4000 RPM, pretty high for a 3.0. A great value, expecially compared to the BMW 3 Series. Interior is downright sexy, except for the cupholders.

  So So Audi - 2004 Audi A4
  By FLAJIM - December 6 - 5:45 pm

  I have had my A4 for 2.5 yrs. I had 34000 miles on the car when I bought and now have 82000. In the last year I have had to replace the ignition coil, fuel pump, and Im getting ready to take it in for a trans module that costs $2000. And I just found out my top leaks and will need to be replaced at $2500. This is a car you need to get rid of at 40 or 50k miles. Audi I hope you see this review. Its time to trade for a Toyota or Honda.

  Only Time Will Tell. - 2004 Audi A4
  By Bespoke - October 9 - 3:16 am

  I have only owned this car for about 4 1/2 months. And I love the cars design, material quality and control layout. Im very happy with the handeling and even the rather small engine. But there seems to be issues with the windows and rain sensor, there are a few plastic interior rattles that annoy me. The audio system is terrible (Symphony system). Im not disappointed,

  Good car, expensive to keep - 2004 Audi A4
  By Bryan - September 22 - 6:09 pm

  The A4 quattro is great however the cost to repair and keep the car is pretty expensive. The windshield wiper arms and control were replaced for 500+ dollars, 4000 dollars worth of repair after rear end collision, torque converter failure at 67000 miles, dead battery after 4 years (134 dollars non Audi battery) I liked the car in the beginning but it got costly to keep especially with premium gas at 4.30+/gal. Also the car was never the same after the accident.

  Good car but totally unreliable - 2004 Audi A4
  By SilverA4 - October 7 - 6:48 pm

  I really like my 2004 A4 but it has been in the shop too many times. It had problems with the turbo charger at about 37k miles, then a leaking oil gasket at 45k, ignition coils replaced at 48k and the entire 2nd cylinder head was replaced shortly after that. Luckily this was done under warranty but Im thinking of selling it now before anything else can go wrong.

  Probably the best car I have owned - 2004 Audi A4
  By Bill - August 26 - 9:14 am

  Over the 3 and 1/2 years I have owned this car, it has been nearly flawless. One repair under warrantee to replace the catalytic converter. The 1.8 has sufficient power and delivers excellent gas mileage for an AWD vehicle. The AWD really delivers in heavy rain and is adequate in snow providing you drive sanely.
