- Confusing dash layout, not much rear legroom, not very fast in a straight line.

Bad luck or actual crap of a vehicle - 2000 Audi A4
By Suckered - April 28 - 2:10 pmWe bought this car for my kid. The car had 121k miles which isnt much from the reviews I have read on this vehicle. But,after owning it for less than 2 weeks it was in the shop. 4 months later, I stuck over three grand into this vehicle and it wont stop breaking. It seems like as soon as I fix one thing, another one breaks. I am ready to take it to auction.

My audi - 2000 Audi A4
By dave - December 4 - 8:48 pmI got the car with 80000 miles and put an extra 40000 in the past two years and I cant imagine anyone having as many problems with a car than I had. Very expensive to repair the smallest stuff. The acceleration is horrible but I love the handling and brakes. I like how the lights light up a lot and love the heated seats. Everyone complains about the zero room in the back. Cant stand the buttons always jamming in the cold... cheap.

Dont buy this car - 2000 Audi A4
By Dede - March 14 - 7:20 pmI bought my Audi A4 1.8T in 2000 new. Over the last 7 years of ownership (and 69,000 miles) I have had to replace different sensors on the engine 7 different times, the last, just 2 weeks ago at $700 for two oxygen sensors. Just 4 days later I was in Audi service again for a hose that needed to be ordered, and a total of $170 would be needed. I was so mad I sent my Audi to the used car auction. I also had to replace brake pads every 11,000 miles. I thought this was also unreasonable. I averaged between $800 and $1,000 a year for maintenance and have decided this car is not worth owning.

Dont buy this vehicle!!!!! - 2000 Audi A4
By The Whites - May 19 - 10:26 pmWe bought our Audi 1.8T in 2000 and we were very excited about the car. As of today 5/19/2005 we have about 30,000 miles on the odometer. From the first year we owned the car we had issues with the Turbo and Quattro drive gaskets leaking air/fluid. Since the car was under warranty for 3 years, we had the gaskets replaced at the dealer for no charge. Now off warranty, the dealer told us we needed new gaskets again and it costs $800 to replace. Our driveway shows signs of oil drops. Ive known other Audi owners having similar gasket problems with their newer AUDIs. BUYER BEWARE!

Expensive electrical problems - 2000 Audi A4
By Joe in Virginia - February 26 - 3:10 pmWe previously owned 2000 Audi A4 AWD 2 years ago. We have been astonished by the frequency and cost of expensive repairs. Our airbag controller and brake controller have failed, each costing $1000-$1500 to repair. We have developed an oil-leak costing $1000 to repair. The bumper scratches incredibly easily and ends up looking terrible. The interior trim is coming apart. Net-net, though a very pretty and comfortable car that is fun to drive, the cost of ownership is far beyod what one would expect. We will never buy another Audi!

Fun but costly - 2000 Audi A4
By go4th - September 4 - 2:00 amThis is my wifes first new car and I can say with certainty we will not be purchasing an Audi again. This car may be fun to drive but we seem to be constantly taking it in to the shop. In our case the troubles seem to be with the key fob, water pump, headlights, and brakes. The dealership was good while vehicle was under warranty but repairs post warranty are now terribly expensive no matter where we take it. Large acceleration lag when you put your foot down. Cruise control works only occasionally. We will go with something more reliable next time that is also cheaper to maintain.

Mistake - 2000 Audi A4
By Mike S. - October 3 - 2:00 amI will start by saying I love the design and performance. But....I have never had a car in the shop more. Yes, because of the good warrenty, it hasnt cost me anything other than time. I have replaced more headlights than I care to remember. The car has been towed once, had a brake rotar replaced, conciquental gagets not working properly, and other misc. problems. The shop I deal with has been a horror and Audi has not done anything to address my concerns. My lease ends in January and I cant wait to get out.
