Used 2009 Audi A3 Wagon Consumer Reviews
First import for my garage
Coming from a Chevy-only-world I could not be any happier. Power, style, handling, it's all there in spades. The combination of redesigned 2.0T-TFSI, DSG transmission and Haldex AWD is amazing. It is so fun to drive I find myself taking the long-way home almost every day. And the hatch makes it extremely practical. My dog loves cruising around, grinning at everyone through the back window. And the folding back seats have made room for a new grill, small patio set and almost everything I need to haul. On top of all this the A3 is top-rated for safety and sips so little gas I have no concerns with non-stop spirited driving.
Great sporty car
I loved this car. I just turned it in this weekend for my 3rd Audi in three years. I needed a bigger car for the family so I went with an A6. I have owned BMW's, VW's, Mercedes, Ford's, Chevy's, & Toyota's. Audi's are by far the best as far as I am concerned. I custom ordered it from Audi with the options I wanted (convenience pckg, open sky, cold weather, s-line). It has great pep for a 4 cylinder turbo. I added H & R sport spring and bilstein shocks to it and wow was this car a fun car to drive. I love Audi's design of the new '09's and the LED's speak for themselves.

Great used car if you like working on cars
Very comfortable, practical, fast, and good looking car for the money. Through my experience (1.5 years ownership, 30k km @ 190k) this car has had some issues come up but I was easily able to fix myself, PCV valve replacement ($40), throttle body replacement ($110), new ignition coils ($90), door lock actuator ($40), door harness wiring breaks (solder), a new high pressure fuel pump ($200), and keeping up with regular maintenance. None of the issues took more than a couple hours with the help of youtube to fix and you can buy virtually any high quality part from rockauto for cheap, which has saved me thousands. It is also know to consume oil and get some rust on the front fenders. If you aren't comfortable working on your own car, this would definitely be a money pit at higher milages. But other than the repairs I've had to make, this car has been perfect in terms of power (can easily get it tuned with no additional hardware), comfort, fuel economy, practicality, and features especially for the price they are today. The quattro, along with some good winter tires makes an extremely reliable winter car too. As long as you keep up with the maintenance and are willing to work on your own car, it will easily last over 250k km.
