Default Buying a 2014 A4. Need advice

Hello Audi world,
I am looking at purchasing a 2014 Audi A4 with 70,000 miles on it and was wondering what wear and tear parts will need to be replaced. I need to know how much this car will cost me over the course of a couple of years. I would like to know ahead of time so I could talk the price down if needed.

Jared, welcome aboard! Is this a CPO car coming from an Audi dealer?

Have you owned an Audi or European car in the past?

The maintenance costs on an Audi are considered by some to be in nose bleed territory. You should know that going in. If you can do basic maintenance on your own, different game. I guess the biggest concern on the 2 litre engine is oil consumption. Some cars consume nothing, other cars are consuming 1 qt over 500 miles. If you can access the CARFAX or service history, you should see if any of the repair work has been done. Apart from that, the cars are pretty good, IMO.
