Answer 1

A4 IS DEFF WORTH IT... I have an a4 that went through the water in a flood.. AND REMAINS PERFECT..  

Answer 2

I don't own one, my husband works as a technician there. They are not the most reliable cars, but you can get lucky if the car was maintained properly. They are pricey to fix, a transmission will cost around $8000, if you need one.. Also depends which engine you get. So make sure the previous owner has all the papers, maintenance, and good luck! We own Toyota and Nissan and not because We could not afford an Audi.. Some of our friends has Audi's and they call my husband every month with something.They are very safe and yummy to drive though!!

Answer 3

A4's are pricey to fix .

they don't break alot

Answer 4

from personal experience, Audi's are very reliable and very safe cars!  its a 2005 so it should still have a year or so left on its warranty. But be prepared for the long run which might bring a hefty maintenance price tag.

Answer 5

I sell Audi's primarily because they have saved my life.

1 Crash: Driving with my friend in his dad's A6 when an 18-Wheeler Rear Ended us at 25MPH into a Suburban. We both walked out perfectly fine with only airbag burns.

2 Crash: Driving myself in my A3 when I hit a 150lb. Deer at 40MPH. Walked out fine with only a totaled car.

3 Crash: On a test drive with customer in a 2004 A4 Cabrio when an Explore flipped and landed partially on the hood of the car. We were both unharmed.

To be perfectly honest, they will be expensive like any other high end German Car. Mostly because Audi uses VERY high quality parts that are expensive from the start.

But, maintenance is really never unexpected. You will never be driving and the car will just start overheating. The average Audi repair would be a nice "Check Engine" light on the dashboard.

I would recommend getting either an extended warranty or the Audi Care Package because it will help in repairs.

Good Luck
