Yes, especially for those folks who get it serviced at a dealer, or
who ignores scheduled maintenance. Otherwise, no more so than any
other German luxury car.

reliability..........much the same as any other make.
expensive to maintain.............depends a) what needs doing and b) who
does it.
get the car checked over by an Audi 'expert' before purchase and ask
demanding questions.....make sure cam belt has been replaced as this is
probably the most expensive service at that year.

I'm finding my '02 A4 to be a little more expensive to maintain than
the Renaults that I used to own, but a *lot* less expensive than my
last car, a '98 BMW 3-Series. So far, it's cost me about GBP 600 a
year for main dealer servicing. In the last two years, it's had two
routine services, a brake fluid change and a set of four (very
expensive!) tyres. That's all. (The BMW worked out at about GBP 1200
a year, and was off the road for one thing and another about three
times a year.)
On balance, the Audi is a better car to own than the BMW.
