2005 A4 reliability
I'm considering an A4 Avant (2.0 or 3.2) to replace my 94 Volvo 850
turbo wagon.
My Volvo has gone about 230,000 miles and has had only one major
service, which involved pulling the engine to replace the rear
crankshaft oil seal. The only othr semi-expensive items to go were
the front axle CV joint boots, one set, I replaced, and the other, the
dealer, while they had the engine out.
Can I expect a new Audi to go this far, with hard driving, without
much more than regular services for the first 150,000 miles?

Yes but I would avoid the 2.0 as it's not enough for the weight of car. You
don't say which country you're in but perhaps the 3.0 diesel might be a good
option if its available

Have you actually driven the new 2.0 FSI in the B7 A4?

Why would anyone buy a 2.0FSI when the 2.0 TFSI is out, I would go for the
1.8T B7 or 2.0T or 3.0

Sorry, that's what I meant - the turbo 2.0 FSI engine. It's *way* different
responding from the 1.8T - think "Power NOW" not "Power Soon"...
