Default Looking to Return to Audi

I was a member of the forum for several years when I owned my 1994 Audi 90. I have been driving a 2006 Porsche Cayenne S for the past several years and am now looking to come back to the Audi world. Have my eye on a 2014 Audi A4 premium plus with 23k. Car is well optioned and is an SLine. It have MMI, nav, sport seats, driver adjustable suspension, etc. Since I have been away from Audi for a while, any issues I need to be looking for? Thank for any help provided.

A4 is sure gonna be slow compared to that Porsche

After the 2013 facelift the A4 has very few issues. I have a 2014 and I've had the PCV valve replaced (common, they had a crappy part) and most of the fuel evap system replaced (haven't read of anyone else having issue with theirs.) I plan on keeping mine after lease - so I'm not anticipating any big problems over the next 6-8 years of ownership.

Thanks for your reply. I understand the HP difference in the two but you have to understand that the A4 is about 2500 pounds heavier than the A4.

Th A4 that I am looking at a 2014 and pretty loaded, they are currently asking 27k for the car. It is in like new condition with no dings or anything. Any thoughts if this is a good deal?

Seems about right. That's low mileage and still has warranty, was probably 45k new.

Pulled the trigger and I am now back in the Audi Family. Feels kind of weird not driving an SUV after all these years.
Purchased a 2014 A4 Premium plus, non-quattro
S-Line with sport package, Nav, MMI, rear sensors, and really loaded out. Very happy with the purchase.
