Hey guys, Im thinkkin to get an A4 with about 98' 70 k on it tiptronic.

1st of is A4 a somewhat reliable car?, necause I read some problems with timing belt and rotrs, I consider those minor problems, because I can fix that myself, but are there any dark ones that I sohuld consider.

and 2-nd about tiptronic, can i Rev up in N and then swtich it to 1st in tiptronic?

and the last Question is about the chip that many peoples get on tehir A-4 wher can I get one and how does it imprve the performance.

sorry for hte long post,

THanks guys

 

Hey welcome to the board. Whether the A4 is a reliable car depends on the previous owner and his/her maintainance habits. Overall, Audi's are not as reliable as say a honda or toyota. They do however offer a much better driver experience. You should NEVER rev an auto/tip in N and switch gears. Giac makes a chip that can be bought from http://www.awe-tuning.com. They typically increase performance by advancing the timing and replotting the fuel maps.

 

thanks alot, just one more question, Wuts the best cold air intake for an A4 for that will get me better fuel mileage and a good REV NOISE

thankalot

 

well cold air intakes don't get you better fuel mileage on audi's. They come from the factory with very efficient intakes. As far as sound just about any of them would increase the sound, just make sure you get a good heat shield, or you'll be decreasing performance.

 

wut would be a good intake for an A4

 

I'm thinking about getting this one. I'll post back when I do.

No you want one of these.

 

I was wondewring , i heard that if you get an Audi past 100k then you gotta change the timing belt assy on it, is that tru and is it possible to do by hand
