Six years into my ownership of one of the first 2015/65 plate B9's which I got as an ex-demo in summer 2016. and is now on 78 000. What can I report? Faultless in terms of reliability, long term fuel consumption is 54mpg and all I have had to spend money on is long life servicing, tyres, brake...
It should say on the driver door jamb plate but I run at 2.4 bar front and 2.2 bar rear. Hankook Ventus S1 Evo2 are my current tyres having shifted from Michelin Primacy 4.
Well they stop the car, seem a little less dusty and were a lot cheaper than going to a main dealer. Was offered Audi originals, pattern copies and Brembo's. Not a lot of difference in price
When my rears had worn too much I got a "Brake Fault - Contact a workshop" message; when the fronts went the message did at least tell me it was the front pads.
It's likely to be the cover over the gearbox, rear most section. Mine has popped out many times and has been replaced but has still fallen foul of really heavy rain/deep puddles. I think that the 'Ultra' models are just a bit too low so when you hit a large puddle spray is forced up through the...
225/50 17 tyres don't have the best range of options. I liked Michelin Primacy 4 but now have Hankook Evo2's at £108 a wheel; they are unbelievably quiet even compared to the super quiet Primacy's. Can't comment on anything else as I have a 2.0Tdi.
Had my local tyre shop do a full Brembo replacements for my fronts for £230. Rears would be a bit less. Took them just over an hour. Why do it yourself?
A4's don't seem to be that fragile. Mine is still absolutely fine after nearly 5 1/2 years as it was a really early, Nov 2015 car. All I'm doing is the regular services and replacing what wears out; last week front discs and pads. 61 500 miles and going strong.
