What's New for 2012 The Audi A4 returns with minimal changes for 2012 that are limited to a few previously optional features becoming standard along with revisions to the options packages. Among entry-level luxury sedans, the 2012 Audi A4 is one such car. This might seem like an odd choice given every other competing model has a six-cylinder, but the reality is that the A4 gains a lot more than it loses by this choice. Atypically for the entry-level luxury class, the A4 comes with only one engine choice: a turbocharged 2. In fact, the A4 manages to meet and even beat its base-model competitors when it comes to acceleration and fuel economy.
Q:
A: A modded car will have to be maintained more meticulously so be aware. I have seen very well maintained stock 1.8t's make it well into the high 100k miles. I have seen very poorly maintained 1.8t's die before they make it out of warranty. In your case, be sure to only use synthetic engine oil and if the timing belt hasn't been done within the last 5 years or so, do it now. Be aware of sludge issues with this engine too. Check the underside fo the oil cap for sludge residue. If there is any, you may want to look into a flush and stuff. Audi dealers have a procedure that involves replacing several lines and using factory cleaning equipment to resolve most of these issues. Its not going to be cheap. I would stay away from any over the counter flush solutions though. They typically do more damage then helping. If you take care of your car, then it should be able to take you close to the 200k mile mark with only minor problems. (answered by Kevin J on February 05, 7617)
A: Over 100k miles. (answered by Bubba B on August 04, 2009)Q:
A: If the air intake is for the 1.8T engine you should be fine. One model year won't make a difference. That engine has been around a long time.
The difference between a regular A4 and a quattro is the quattro has AWD. (answered by mccoyblues on April 16, 2009)
Q:
A: 95k on a 2005, i would probably stay away. However if you want to continue with the sale make sure it has all of the maintenance records and they are done at the proper time. Also if it hasnt had its major tune up, belts, water pump ect. its time for that which is around 1500. How many more miles can it handle, how knows. Its had a rough life so far, I cant see this thing making it past 130k without any problems.
As for fuel, if this were the v6 I would say put in what you want, but with the 1.8t your going to want to go witht he recommended 91 octane. (answered by a88fl1 on March 04, 2009)
