2002 Audi A4 1.8 review from North America
"Piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil sludge problem was what the vancouver dealer has told. now, it is a cam-shaft that is broken. Talked to Audi Canada and only listens to the dealer. Dealer's service is lousy. I will never buy Audi again and will never deal with Audi cars. Only attractive outside and inside, it is practically junk. Audi Canada will hot honor their 80,000 KM powertrain warranty. I suggest everyone to stay away from this car unless you don't plan to drive one. Overcall, the car's main engine is terriblely designed and compare to my BMW, it is worse than any other cars I've owned. I will sell it as soon as the dealer now offers 'USED ENGINE' to make me happy.
So Audi Canada, your powertrain warranty will have to say is USED ENGINE included. DON'T BUY THIS CAR.
General comments?
Don't every buy audi.
