Audi A4 / S4 reliability ratings and comparisons
#50
We've updated our reliability stats for the A4 / S4 to include owner experiences through September 30, 2016.
Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year (lower is better):
2016 A4 / S4: 28, moderate, small sample size
2015 A4 / S4: 20, low
2014 A4 / S4: 27, moderate
2013 A4 / S4: 29, moderate
2012 A4: 34, moderate
2012 S4: 26, low
2011 A4: 38, moderate
2011 S4: 54, moderate
2010 A4: 46, moderate
2010 S4: 55, moderate
2009 A4 2.0T: 62, moderate
2009 A4 3.2: 57, moderate
We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds", to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop:
2015 A4 / S4: 80, < 1
2014 A4 / S4: 79, 2
2013 A4 / S4: 75, < 1
2012 A4: 76, < 1
2012 S4: 73, 3
2011 A4: 68, 3
2011 S4: 56, < 1
2010 S4: 56, < 1
Additional participants always helpful.
