This video is also a maintenance and buying guide/advice that applies to all 2011 - 2016 Audi A5 coupes.

@AccentOnCars 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! You’re right. I forgot diesels. Over here in the US not too many people buy diesel 😀 The best is the 6-cylinder diesels. The diesel issues might be turbos (although rare), egr valves, timing chain (depending on the year). And other issues that any European car have: leaks, various sensors. In general 6 cylinder diesels are stronger.

@maxowen2591 3 жыл бұрын

One thing I do not necessarily agree with is the fuel mileage figures being "pretty close to what the manufacturer states". Here in the UK Audi claim that model will do around 38-42 mpg. The claims for the TDI are just as optimistic to say the least. Maybe Audi are more honest over there with regards expected fuel economy. Let's be honest, as lovely as Audis are, the companys track record with honesty is, error, dubious to say the least🤔😉

@AccentOnCars 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, they got burned pretty badly a couple of years ago 😀 When I review VW Atlas I noticed fuel economy wasn’t great. They have to be more accurate now 😀

@maxowen2591 3 жыл бұрын

@@AccentOnCars yeh, mines a 4 cylinder😂😂 and as such does have a timing belt as opposed to chain so arguably better/cheaper apart from paying 300 squid every 60000 miles or so. But obviously if the chain snaps then 300 smackaroos is about all the car would be worth😂😂

I sometimes fail to hear the engine (it works quite smooth) +Love the looks (subjective I guess, but I always wanted this car) +The steering wheel has insane precision.

@AccentOnCars 3 жыл бұрын

2018 has it’s pros and cons. It’s made in Mexico. Whether that’s a good thing or not is up for discussion. It offers significantly more tech and optional active suspension. 2.0 TFSI i-4 engine is conceptually the same, but has been improved a lot. I assume it will be similarly reliable and unreliable as previous TFSI. But those are good engines overall. Cons: they ditched the brilliant 8 speed automatic for 7 speed dual clutch. It shifts faster and contributes to higher mpg, but there is no way it will be as reliable as the previous ZF 8 speed. They switched to the so called quattro ultra which is not a constant AWD as the previous Quattro was. Most won’t notice the difference, but the older quattro with the torsen diff was great.
