2013 Audi Allroad Consumer Reviews

Absolutely brilliant car, well built, smooth quiet and absolutely brilliant family car in all sorts of inhospitable terrain.

I’ll start by saying this is one beautiful, comfortable, great to drive car. It’s my second Audi, the first an A4 many years ago. The features are easy to use. The safety of blind spot, park assist are wonderful. I think the pick up is fast and handles like a dream. Here’s the big downside-within last 10 months or so I am burning oil…..like every 4 days burning oil. Mechanic checked it out and couldn’t find the source. Now it’s gone from the oil burning to the coolant going below minimum every few weeks. This is insanity for this brand of car with low mileage for the age. I’m not sure what the problem is but I’m pretty certain it’ll cost thousands unless I just do a trade in. I have never had a car eat oil and now coolant like this. Unacceptable. I will probably return to a Lexus SUV which are much, much less expensive to fix and so reliable.

Amazing performance driving through the mountains on a snowy and icy road. Which is what I was looking for. The acceleration won't set any records, but it's pretty good. The one downside is not much cargo space with the rear seats up. I bought a cargo carrier which solves that problem for me. The seats are some of the most comfortable car seats I've sat in. I've owned this car for a couple of years, bought it from the original owner at 40K miles. I was a little hesitant to get an Audi out of warranty, but so far so good. Other than regular maintenance (which is a little pricy, an oil change is $90 at an indy Euro mechanic for example) so far so good. Nothing major has gone wrong.

This car is great. I moved to MA with a Mustang Convertible, and needed a all season car. Yes, I kept my Mustang. This car is absolutely one of the best cars I have owned, and I drove Mercedes and BMW vehicles for years. Its versatile, decent gas mileage, and I have had no problems with it so far. Once the warranty is up, I will trade it in on another one.

This is my second Allroad the first was a 2003. Overall I love the car, I live in the mountains and at the beach so ability to drive in snow is crucial (added all mountain tires) Miss the hydraulics and power of the 2003 but this one still gets me there. Have to keep wheel wells cleared out as freezing snow builds up. Plenty of room inside for my mountain bike, skis, gear. Classy looks and the handling makes the winding mountain road a blast. Heels, boots or barefoot I'd buy it again ! A woman driver ;)

100k in, no problems yet. Very fun car to own.

I changed the oil on time. I did all of the scheduled maintenance. I'm not a hard driver. At 83K miles, my Allroad started "consuming oil". My mechanic and dealer independently confirmed the oil separator was not the issue ($250 fix). Both agreed that the engine would need to be torn down and troubleshot. The dealer estimated the exploration at $2-3K. The mechanic said he wished "Audi would fix this issue." He said it's far too common. At worst, it would mean a new motor, estimated at $11k by the dealer for a car worth $12k in trade. If something was broken, the extended warranty would cover. If something was "just worn" it would not. Aside from that (lol) - the car handles beautifully. It's comfortable and quiet. The MMI system is terrible, sometimes picking up my phone immediately, sometimes taking a few minutes. Sometimes I'd turn the car off to pump gas, and when restarting, it would reboot. The dealer said this was normal. I rented a 2017 A6 and found it to have the same issue. The loaner I got from the dealer confirmed it to be inherent to MMI. Overall, you'll get much, much more for your money from another brand - more tech and better reliability. I will never own another Audi, unfortunately. Few cars match their styling and the 2.0L Turbo is awesome. Not will I recommend it to a friend or family member. Sorry, not sorry, Audi. Goodbye.

After 105,000 miles, my allroad has been a very reliable car. The only issue Ive had to repair was 2 cv axle boots that split. I do my own maintenance and parts are not expensive. Dealer repairs can be costly though. The car looks great, drives great and is very practical. I wish it had a little more power but realistically, the vehicle is plenty fast as it is. It handles great in snow and on dirt roads. I wouldnt classify this as an offroad vehicle though. The interior is beautiful and well laid out. Fuel economy is ok but not outstanding.
