    I just bought a 2012 A4 2T Quattro and so far I’m really happy with it! I really wanted AWD for the winter months here in Mass.

    AWD system is great though I would still recommend an all weather tire which is rated for snow or a traditional snow tire in the winter months.

    Thank you for your comment and your questions. Personally I prefer the A4 from 09-12 for how it drives compared to the C class Mercedes from 07-10. Both will have reliability issues so really it will come down to the condition and price of the one you are looking at. I would choose whichever one was maintained the best between the models you are looking at.

    Absolutely, please have it checked out by a mechanic. Is this from a private seller or a dealer, if it's from a dealer I would get extended warranty, mainly to cover excess oil consumption. Either way I would check my oil level every 1,000 miles and add oil as needed. I really like the 2012 A4, drives great, build quality is really good, looks nice inside and out. Just make sure it's inspected by a mechanic and if you buy it please due the proper maintenance for it. Example oil changes regularly, and even though it's pricy I would take it to the Audi dealer for these so they can tell you each time what else will be needed.

    ‘08 to 2012 a4’s with a 1.8 and 2.0 tfsi engines tend to use more oil. There is a fault in the engine and audi offered a fix back then. When buying one check the maintenance history to find out if your car still has the problem. Cars with well over 200.000 km usually don’t have the problem anymore.
