nitish0991 · #1 04-22-2008, 02:10 PM

i am looking at Audi S4 and i am hoping to buy one in the near future. What kind of mileage should i expect from the Audi cars or how would i know what is too high and what is too low. Also,what kind of problems would i run into with one with average miles on?

thanks

13 mpg city / 20 mpg highway from the V8 piggy. The trip computer will give you all the mileage info you need to monitor what the car is doing instantly or on average.

The S4's have been a much more reliable car than the twin turbo S4's from the B5 generation. Leatherette seat wear is a problem, radio and window control peeling" of the switches is a problem. I am not sure there are any major issues other than that and the coil pack problems that plagued all the B6's, likely by now most of those are sorted out though.

Interesting. Have you ever been driving an S4 yourself?
