Used 2007 Audi A4 Sedan Consumer Reviews
Feeling a bit worried ...
Ok, here is the scoop - I love my 2007 Audi A4 Quatrrrrro ... fun to drive, great fuel economy and a definite head turner ... I bought is used with 50K miles August of 2010 - and I just got my check engine light January 2011. Initial symptoms were engine misfire (temp outside was -11 F ccooooold) ... so I took it to the dealer I bought it from and they had to replace some valve because of fault $257 later, it was deemed OK ... this happened after putting 10K miles ... and I was hoping to expect such events after 40K or so ... This is why I am a bit worried - what is going to go wrong again?
Nice car with issues
The 2007 model had transmission issues, according to one mechanic I visited, and we had to replace our transmission TWICE. The first time, we split the cost with the dealership, and the 2nd time was such an embarrassment that the dealership replaced it for free. The car is expensive to repair as you might expect. Gas mileage in the city is 15 and on the highway is 26 which is pathetic in 2019 when global warming looms large, but it makes more sense to hold it than sell it and buy another. The car is nice, as described elsewhere, and if the tranny hadn't blown twice, I would give it an excellent review. Much more thoughtfully designed than most cars, as well as any of the newer Audi models that we have driven as loaner cars (A3, Q5). We have better value keeping the old car than trading for a newer model. And honestly gear heads, who in the world really needs to go faster than 100 mph with a sedan? We have highways, not autobahns. Audi needs to wake up and get an electric vehicle out there.

Great car
Great quality. You can feel it the moment you get in and start the car. After test driving Acura and Benz and Volvo and Lexus they all feel cheap and flimsy in comparison to the Audi. Just a great well thought out and very very well built car.
2007 A4 Quattro 2.0-Fantastic
Just bought a 2007 A4 Quattro 2.0 used with 18K miles in excellent condition. The car performs like no other car I have had. First, handling & ride are excellent. Fuel economy has been 22 MPG on short trips and around 30 on longer trips. The seats (both leather and power) are very comfy and the interior is very well assembled. Only complaint is the short leg room in the rear seats, but since the kids are no longer at home, it will only be used occasionally. (HINT: If you raise the front seat slightly, you can move the seat forward enough to allow more space for rear leg room. There are 2 trip computers,which were hard to use, but after reading the manual it makes sense. (See below.)
Very Pleased Overall
I opted to purchase the A4 after comparing with the BMW 3 series (325) after test driving both and am still very pleased with my choice. The suspension is very tight providing a fun yet comfortable drive and the acceleration is satisfactory due to the turbo. I would love more power, but this is something you must pay for, and for the price, I feel very satisfied. Like other reviewers, I have had the issue of burning through oil, going nearly dry between changes and the issue of squeaky brakes also reported. I also think that the internal dash readouts and controls both aesthetically and ergonomically could use improvement, even compared to VW. Overall, I still love the car.
