BMW 325xi or Audi A4?

Remember this only affects the 2.0T in 05.5-08, these cars did come with a V6! And I’d say if you buy a 2.0t and there are no symptoms, just change the follower. Preventative maintenance like a timing belt job on any car. Then all the worry is behind you knowing that you have the revised part in your car. Or buy one that has already had it replaced.

op is LOOKING for those exact years… Also, im sure the other models and engine sizes have common problems as well correct? I didnt look it up but im sure they do.

I dont think I understand what this statement means… Your saying he should have spent the $2k EARLIER on replacing the cam follower even before he started noticing it? If so, im not sure what sense that would make, what if he would have never ran into the problem but still spent the $2k on replacing a perfectly fine cam follower/cam shaft? Cost of repairs imo is just about as important as the reliability aspect… I think some other shit went wrong with neds car as well right after he spent the $2k in repairs, fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator or something.

You’re sure they do? How are you sure? You are an idiot and I have nothing else to add to this thread.

Did you see the question mark at the end of the sentence? It was a question since you seem to be the audi finatic with your 1970’s audi.

Also AMD, when do you know when its time to replace these parts without them going bad? I’ve heard of this issue happening at 30k miles, neds at 60k miles and other people not until 100k miles. Not trying to be a douche or anything just saying op is looking for a nice looking car that his GIRL-friend doesnt have to WORRY about. I’d say that outrules audi.

last summer io ran into ned at bj’s gas… he asked me why it was so loud and diesel like, i told him thats how fsi engines run… i told him THAT DAY to check the cam follower/cam for any damage or wear…to change the follower is 3 bolts and throw in a new follower… not a big deal and could have been prevented.

If nothing got ruined, what would audi charge to replace the cam follower aprox? just curious, I have no idea.

Lol alright I’m pretty sure this thread is fucked… Ummm lol, Do what do I ask has been fixed when I look at the car? Follower and all that?

@sbardy

Spend the extra money and buy a car with a warranty.

@AMD IS THE BEST

So worth it!

Can’t second these posts enough. I’m so happy I have warranty on my car.

[IOM_G8_GT_888]

Were staring at 2 audi a4s that are certified pre owned. Red n silver. Do red audis only come in tan interior?

It’s a tsb, should be covered Under warranty. If not I dunno, hour worth of labor plus part…?

@looksexyS2000

the best thing to do for your girlfriend is to buy something that has a factory warranty if not then get something that has every piece of maintenance like something from (illya)

Thanks Alex lol.

The key is to find a well maintained car (of any brand) and keep maintaining it. You do that and it should last. My Maxima was PERFECT (no joke) until I started to muck with it by installing a different intake manifold, suspension, etc. If I just drove that car (like I intend to drive the M - sold my lowering springs and cancelled all modding plans), then with my track record of doing all the maintenance when needed…this thing should be just as perfect at 100k+.

@Cossey

I love my BMWs. Would I buy an Audi? Maybe one day, but only a 90, Coupe, etc. I have nothing against them, but when I test drove a new Audi Q7 TDI and a BMW X5 diesel almost back to back, the X5 is worlds better. I wouldn’t bother with a 325 though, at least do a 330.

Ilya, I never said I disliked my G35. You always get so defensive whenever anything is said negatively about anything you like. Calm down killer. I’d never buy a Jap luxury car after going Euro. Fit and finish on every German car I’ve been in has been better than the similarly classed Jap car. Engine reliability may be better in Jap cars, but that’s about it.

For the record, drive the X5, then the new Durango…yup…Its the X5 killer
