Positive Review

"Exquisite balance of tech and comfort"

Audi has outdone itself with this car. As a former A4 owner (2011 model), I can honestly say that driving performance, use of tech and interior finishes have reached a new level for this model. The car's interior is simply exquisite, the driving performance has improved considerably with additional power, a dual clutch transmission and paddle shifters for a sporty experience, and the inclusion of state of the art driver assistance features make this car a pleasure to drive. Also gets credit for having cured some of the glaring omissions in previous models (such as the lack of Bluetooth streaming in the 2011 model). The only downside is that, at least my model, had an issue with the passenger mirror that the dealership took 4 visits to correct. Also, the Apple Carplay integration is flakey, but I can't honestly say whether it is an Apple problem or an issue on the Audi side. Notwithstanding these two items, I am extremely pleased with the vehicle and would recommend it confidently.

Critical Review

"A great ride, some features malfunction easily."

Ive been driving Audis since 2005. Somehow the older cars feel more solid and better than the new one. I understand that with so many gadgets the car can have some misses, but the basic Apple Carplay that should connect your iPhone to the MMI simply does not work. My car is about 3 weeks old and this happens. I contact the AudiUSA for support and after a couple of weeks worth of the usual, can you use other usb cable, try another usb port, is your phone updated, or try another phone... The final verdict is that I MUST take my car to a dealership to have it fixed or taken look at. How ridiculous is this, Audi?

Superior luxury in the Audi A4 premium plus Quattr

July 29, 2034. Just a few months before my one year anniversary, and I have to say I love this vehicle. It’s class with luxury the best part about it. The safety features the second part about it the comfort the sporty look the sporty feel when you’re driving it and the awesome sound system. You’ll be very impressed with the safety features no blindside the latest and greatest stated art technology. It’s amazing how German cars are made there a word for perfection this vehicle. I highly recommend. Enjoy Your next ride

Smooth Ride

One of the reasons I love the A4 is its enjoyable driving experience. The handling is quite nimble and precise, the ride is firm yet supple, with a very quiet cabin. The instrument panel shows pertinent information in a clear, comprehensive way. Also Interior fit and finish is excellent, and the front seats are comfortable, though the rear seat is tight.

Don't sleep on a 2.0T at a stop light but...
Pros

True definition of a slepper

Cons

Gas tank is too small.

Mind blown from the first test drive. So quiet, smooth and eager. No, you will not beat a Telsa 3 from 0 to 60 (in a straight line, not much can) but punch it and turn a hard left and see if the Tesla can keep up with you.... Quattro is what makes this car feels so safe, solid and planted and driving a car is so much more than just straight-line speed. At least to my generation, it is.

Fast and great mileage
Cons

It’s an Audi, someday it’s gonna get expensive.

Going on year five with this car and still extremely satisfied. Handles like it’s in rails, accelerates like a sports car, and delivers 35+ mpg at 80mph on the freeway. My very first road trip to Chicago from the MSP suburbs and I got 37mpg. The B&O sound system is phenomenal and mine has the Sports Package with the amazing seats. Over 85K miles now the car has been basically bulletproof. I also could not be happier with the dealer network.

Pros

Fast and efficient

Cons

Needs to work on the technology lag

Reliable car, definitely has all the bells and whistles. Definitely worth buying . Audi Technology with the cell phone connecting is a problem. Sometimes you can’t use the keyless entry without pressing the unlock/ lock. Definitely a lag on the technical part. I’m sure they will work out all the bugs. Drives great. Runs fantastic.

Great car

I’ve owned every luxury brand available and this Audi does everything well. Test drive one, especially if your looking at BMW or Mercedes. Logged over 80,000 miles and still a joy to drive. Absolutely zero issues. Hope to Buyi another one soon!

1 year ownership (30k miles)
Pros

Great daily!

Cons

Get ready for depreciation on the value.

I've currently owned my vehicle for 1 year and my A4 has gotten me through 30k miles! It's a great daily but out of hiccups, I had 1 instance that coolant was leaking. Even if the vehicle is CPO please check under the vehicle and engine bay that everything is good to go. It's easy to do your own oil change on the A4 and do it every 3k-5k miles. Otherwise enjoy your ride!

When the Transmission breaks at 36k miles...

Let me start by saying, overall the A4 is an enjoyable car to drive. and I've been happy with its performance, etc. That Said HOWEVER... ...my 2017 Audi A4 Premium Plus car is garaged, and ALL dealer services done on time and documented. Less than 36,000 and I got a transmission light that it's drivable but that it should be serviced when possible. I noticed a very slight shudder, or slip on a couple occasions, mainly when lightly accelerating into turns, but that's it. A trip to the dealer service dept., netted me a bill of almost FIVE-THOUSAND dollars for a transmission repair. They had the nerve to offer me a trade in for a new one. REALLY? ...my A4 has LESS than 36,000 miles on it, and I have a broken Transmission? With ZERO help from Audi or the Dealer, Um, Never, ...Never will I own an Audi again. Next car? May as well buy a Hyundai, with an included 10 year 100,000 mile warranty...
