Hi all,

After researching Audies to death and being overwhelmed with only potential problems, I am in need of some positive experiences with 2005 a4 1.8t in particular. I haven't even taken posession of the vehicle yet and am already thinking I have made a mistake.

Any comments about these cars in general would be appreciated. The car has 158,000k, 6spd std, all service records, synthetic oil and premium gas used only.

Thanks

 

Having owned my A6 for 6 years, and just picked up a 2000 A4 as well, I can tell you that Audi's are perhaps the most fun to drive cars. The A4 with 1.8t 5mt is peppy, responds well to mild overboosting, and is overall a pleasure.

If you have an opportunity to purchase a 05 1.8t, I say go for it, if you run into any mechanical issues in the future, use the forum to help. I do not have experience with the 05 body A4, but the motor and trans are reliable

 

Thanks for the advice. I pick her up tomorrow. Looking forward to owning and driving this car. Does anyone know of a audi car club around quinte or even Toronto?
