Model Overview:

The Audi A4 holds the distinction of having single-handedly revived the Audi brand. Launched in the mid-'90s, the compact A4 quickly became a favorite among luxury car buyers thanks to its beautifully finished cabin, sharp handling and available Quattro all-wheel drive. Although the A4 has offered these core characteristics from day one, it has become increasingly polished and high-tech with each successive generation. No matter which year you're looking at, the A4 promises both engaging performance and suave style inside and out.

The sedan body style has been a constant for the Audi A4, but depending on the vintage, you may also find wagon and convertible variants. Turbocharged four-cylinder power is typically found under the hood, yielding both reasonably spirited acceleration and satisfactory fuel economy. In road tests, we've consistently praised the A4's refined character, with more recent plaudits going to its spacious backseat, which has adequate room for full-size adults.

  • Great Car - 2001 Audi A4
    By -

    This is not the quickest car out there, but it has great handling and is fun to drive. Lots of great feautres for a reasonable price. Looks great inside and out.

  • AUDI has perfected the A4 at this point - 2014 Audi A4
    By -

    Audi has had several years to perfect this model without a major redesign. This car has no weaknesses, other than a higher initial price and expected higher charge from the dealer for service. It is a Germanic import after all. My CPO will pay for the next three major service intervals, so that is around $1500 I wont pay for. An investment with style.

    Have owned the car for a month and went in with high expectations. Happy to say they have all been exceeded. Great drive, excellent handling, great technology. Exceeded all expectations.

    Inspite of no abuse & dealer maintained on Audi schedule weve had various problems with this car both electrical & mechanical. Weve had to replace a drivers window motor, airbag sensor on passenger side, a rear differential while still under warranty. The car is about 5yrs old with 98,000mi & we now learn that the cam seals & cam adjusters need to be replaced. I feel that this is a major mechanical failure for a car like this. Based on our experience we would be hard pressed to buy another Audi. My 3 yr old Dodge Dakota Quad Cab with 71,000 mi has a much better track record than our Audi.

  • Great Ride - 2005 Audi A4
    By -

    Our 2005 A4 3.0 Cabriolet is our 7th Audi and clearly the best. My wife drives an A6 Avant quattro, which also is a winner. Other than the lousy design of the console, the car is the best looking and the most fun to drive of any I have ever owned. I went from a Land Rover Discovery to the A4 Cab. It was a great Move!

  • Wouldnt Trade it For Anything... - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    This car screams quality through-and- through! It offers a great ride, impressive perquisites, a classy look, and a price that is competitive with other entry-level luxury convertibles. It has surprisingly good pick-up, given its powertrain. It is a joy both to drive and to own! Run... dont walk... to your dealer and purchase one of these gems!

  • poor reliability - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    I am second generation Audi owner. I strongly doubt I would buy another. The reliability and resale value is poor at best.In addition I have had problem with power steering, been to two dealers, had it changed twice and still have problem. It could use a little more power as well.

  • Get used to it, and love it. - 2004 Audi A4
    By -

    Excessive mechanical problems early (radio amp, roofliner, window closure, power steering) fixed by dealer. Audi extended warranty by 1 year for the inconvenience. No gears-strange initially, but a dream later on. CVT is deliciously smooth. Time the slight turbo lag, hit the gas a split second early. Computerized triptonic creates 6 “gears” to move through if you like. Punch through corners, enjoy quiet at speed. Power isnt extreme, but solid. I recommend the upgraded stereo and 17-inch rims, without sport suspension. The car is tight enough without it. Not everyone will have this car, but you dont want to be like everyone else, do you...?

  • Audi A4Q 2.0T - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    My new 2007 A4 already been the shop 3 times. Need a new engine @ 2200 miles. Very unreliable machine. Very unhappy customer. Would not buy Audi again. Idle rough at morning start. Dealer said it is normal for all 2.0T.
