2011 s4 58,000 miles used not certified
 

Looking to purchase my first Audi. Found a clean 2011 with 58000 miles for around 22,000 USD. Things to look out for??...Owner review for that year?.. Issues and Common Problems??

I bought my 2011 S4(my 3rd one) 3 yrs ago @ 48k miles and now have 73k miles. No problems other than normal wear and tear items like Brakes, rotors, tires and battery. IMO. all thermostats will eventually fail. The IC radiator is prone to be punctured by road debris.(can cost up to $850 for dealer to repair). But a simple DIY protective screen can be done in less than 45 mins. Many feel the clutch on MT cars is not a stout as it should be and some with the DSG trans have had issues.These are great cars and have been remarkably reliable even with higher mileage. What you really should look out for is to be sure that car you get has the sport differential. It is THE option that makes the S4 special. So your next question should be,"How can I tell if the car has a Sport Dif?"

Thanks for the insight and if you wouldn't mind how can I tell if the Car has sports differential?

Best way is to look under the car. But in that case, you would actually need to know what you are looking for. Or you could get a hold of the window sticker. Asking the sales rep may get you an answer, but it may also get you inaccurate info.Looking on the dash above the radio for this https://www.bing.com/images/search?v...=83&ajaxhist=0 or this https://www.bing.com/images/search?v...=61&ajaxhist=0 looking for Drive select or Comfort/auto/Dynamic/Individual. also it will be in the MMI https://www.bing.com/images/search?v...130&ajaxhist=0
