Recalls and complaints

Owners filed 158 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, back over prevention and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

What the figures tell you

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 7-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Plan on about 24 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 7.9 L/100 km. Every 100 km costs about $13.83 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Inside and out

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 4.76 m long, it is on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Good uses for the A4

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Rent it for a week first

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the A4 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Year and trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
