2007 Audi A4 2.0T quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

Several issues with the vehicle 1) Engine Noise - the car sounds like a diesel. Not Quiet it will bother you. Dealer says that is the injectors 2) Brand new Car that burns oil according to Audi corp the engineering tolerances allow for a quart to be burned every 1200 miles - All I can say is WOW. This is a serious problem that will cause engine failure in the Future 3) The HID Lights vibrate. Taken in on several occasions there is an NTSB release on this safety issue. AUdi wont do anything about it till someone dies. 4) Poor Value. Poor Resale Value. 5) TURBO LAG . . . . Turbo Lag. Step on the Gas Pedal and count 2 missisippi. God forbid you need to quickly accela

Favorite Features

NONE

Suggested Improvements

See review above. Do a web search on Audi problems. Save yourself the headache and disappointment. Also the auto temp control system is terrible. Everyone that has one complains about it. dont buy this car. Dont trust Audi service

Tight design, grin-inducing performance

2007 Audi A4 3.2 Avant quattro 4dr Wagon AWD (3.1L 6cyl 6A)

Review

After test-driving the 3.2L, I could not settle for the 2.0T. While the 2.0T is peppy, the 3.2 is brute-force power, but with a terrific handling finesse. The exterior lines are sleek and not overdesigned like some competitors *cough*BMW*. The interior is likewise sleek without the BMW austerity or Lexus frou-frou. The engine just purrs, and no matter what your speed, the 3.2 has plenty of power in reserve. The GPS is top- notch, the Bose system is pure concert- hall sound, and the overall design is classic. Amazing how a 10-year-old Audi doesn't look nearly as dated as a younger Lexus, Merc or BMW. Most importantly, I took a broadside hit from a Dodge Ram and was fine. Audi - 1, Dodge - 0.

Favorite Features

Bose audio system with Sirius, the 3D GPS Navigation is a must-have, quattro handling is unmatched in the rain or even dry pavement. Safety safety safety. I feel totally confident driving this car anywhere. Seats are so comfy, and I'm not what you'd consider to be a well-padded individual.

Suggested Improvements

A minor thing, but two usable cupholders when the center armrest is down. Yes, Audi, we Yanks drink in the car. More robust paint job. It's beautiful, but bird droppings and the elements seem to affect it more than my Land Rover paint.

Review

I've been eyeing and dreaming of driving this car for 7 years, you hear me, 7 years! Solid performance, nice handling, luxurious interior, a product of real German engineering. Really does well on turning on sharp curves, it hugs the road. You name it, rain, snow, ice, it's there, 4 seasons in a year! Yeah, it gets bored in the summer.

Favorite Features

It's unbeatable AWD that Audi pioneered. The rest just follow. Audi never follows.

Suggested Improvements

The cruise control! It's ok to be in the left but at least make it more accessible for short fingers like me.

Rough Ride

Review

Great engine, handling, and transmission. Unfortunately, the suspension is so hard it transmits every bump and crevice from the road right to the steering wheel and cabin. Makes for a "nervous" ride. Truly unfortunate. I feel like I need to see the chiropractor after every drive.

Favorite Features

Transmission

Good car, but not worth the price

Review

After owning a 2007 A4 for just over 1 year, I can firmly say that it is a really nice car, but definitely not worth the sticker price of 37K. I have a couple of issues (car stalls for 2-3 seconds while cruising) that the dealership can't fix. I have a couple of rattles that really shouldn't exist in this caliber vehicle. I got a great lease deal 400 a month / 15k a year / 24 months with nearly nothing down. It is fun to drive. It's fairly fast for the base engine. The mileage is good, but varies alot between city and highway.

Favorite Features

Handling/cornering. Driving is fun. Steering feel is amazing. Great turning radius.

Suggested Improvements

I can't get comfortable. The seat just doesn't fit me right and I'm pretty average in size/shape. My right knee is always resting on the center console/dashboard area. Rattles and noises. Get the service technicians to be better trained in solving problems, not just plugging into a computer.

2007 Audi A4 2.0T 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

Review

I recently bought my second Audi. This one is an 2007 A4 that I bought as a CPO with 12G KMS. It has a sport suspension with 17 in. MAGS. It is a great combination of style, comfort and driving performance. The 2.0 FSI has a bit of turbo lag in automatic mode but is way less noticeable than in the 1.8T. Frankly, it is no big deal as it is not very apparent and basically disappears in manual mode. Interior is second to none and the handling is crisp and clean. In the process of contemplating this purchase, I have tried out all the competition and came back to Audi because they put everything into one great package.

Favorite Features

Ride...crisp and clean. Sport supension!! Interior and exterior styling. The integrated Bluetooth is a nice feature.

Suggested Improvements

Back seats are still a bit tight.

2007 Audi A4 2.0T Avant quattro 4dr Wagon AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

Review

I'm big, the car isn't, but all in all it is reasonably comfortable. The AWD 6 speed 2.0 T gives me all the performance that I really need for Canadian winters and driving distances. Mileage is excellent on the hwy in 6th and this car pulls well past the speed limit. I find the fit and finish as good as my previous bimmers but the car is more reliable than my recent X5's and is actually better in the snow. I reccomend this car wholeheartedly - I always enjoy driving it!

Favorite Features

It has to be the 2.0T AWD linked to the smooth 6 speed. I love this drive train.

Suggested Improvements

I certainly could juse a little more shoulder room and the styling is a little tame.

2007 Audi A4 2.0T quattro 2dr Convertible AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

Great car for driving around town. Convertable is really fun and in the winter, quattro really gets you through. One issue I have is that on a long trip, the driver's seat becomes very uncomfortable to the point of painful. I have had the pad replaced but it didn't help. I use a towel on the seat for long trips. Additionally, the german car makers need to upgrade their Nav system. Toyota and Acura systems win by a mile!

Favorite Features

Quattro, stereo, performance, convertable top operation

Suggested Improvements

Drivers seat, no Ipod link standard, navigation system, cowl shake

2007 Audi A4 2.0T quattro 2dr Convertible AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

Wow! this is in one word what I can say about this car. Im the convertible type of woman and I previously had the bmw z4. After switching this car to Audi I don't think I will ever go back to BMWs. I live in Las Vegas so sun is always here and the convertible just makes sense however from now on even if I live in Alaska I still wouldn't mind having the same car. In the z4 i had to "work" on getting the top latched to the car and here I press a button and it does it all for me, and I mean ALL. Overall I love it and recommend it to anybody out there.

Favorite Features

Fully rectractable top, no hands required ;) and bi-xenon headlights, interior! Shows how much work has been spent on it, LOVE it!

Suggested Improvements

The steering wheel volume and track change should be done the other way around. It seems to be confusing that with pressing up you actually getting last track instead of the next.

Horrible junk

Review

I purchased a new A4 Quattro. On the way home the ESP light would intermittently stay on, the dynamic headlight warning light came on and stayed on. The cruise control did not work, the next morning I pulled out of the garage and began driving to work, the same thing happened and got worse, the turn signals would not work as well, very poor car, I have immediate glitches, hassles, embarassment (pulled up at starbucks with co-worker in car and had to open the door to get the order) and this is all on the original tank of gas.
