Hi All, I am just settling into the fact that my 98 Audi A4 is totalled and I will need to get another. While travelling on 295 in VA another vehicle crossed ...
Chester, I have a 6 speed manual 2.0. It is a world of difference to the 1.8. In answer to your question, the 1.8 will sound much louder than the 2.8 is. With...
I will agree with what Mike says about the turbo lag on the 1.8T, I hear the 2.0T has less noticeable lag, but I've not driven one, nor will I ever buy another...

PS, I thought the 2.0 sounded like a John Deere. A big let down, but lot's of power. I'd opt for the 3.2 and be done with it all in one factory package. ...
I traded in a 98 2.8 AT Q on a 02 1.8t AT Q and have been pleased. All posts about t lag are true. The cars sweet spot is 30-50 mph. ie I do not miss the 6 ...
Chester, re: the turbo lag - the only times it is really noticeable is accelerating away from rest and if you're in 6th gear on the highway and you want to...
... Yes, if you're buying manual, then the transition from 2.8 V6 to 2.0t will be acceptable. But if you were going to buy a 2.0t with AUTO then I would say...
Iwould agree with that, but I have a tip and use it almost exclusively, still have lag issues Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile ... From: "macpro@..."...
I must agree about buying a certified car or a car under warranty. My manual trans went out on my 02 TT and of course it was out of warranty. Go on, I dare you...
To clarify and give context to my comments... I have driven the 1.8t on many occasions, in many models, with stick and auto. And although I have not yet...

Actually that's not true. The DSG is available in the A-3 and if you drove one I could almost guarantee you'd buy it. Provided you like the car of course....
It's a 2006. I sold these cars for about 8 years and have driven just about everything Audi makes extensively. To bad not the R-8. Anyway, I prefer the 6 speed...
Yes, I've driven the A3 with DSG. I was speaking of the DSG coming to the full line of Audis (and particularly the A4 in this case, of course). I found the A3...
the lag on the 1.8 or 2.0 is not bad at all, the turbos are rather tiny and spool quick "k03/k04" you guys are cry'n lol :P you guys ever ride in a 50trim...
Someone else had mentioned it had something to do with the drive by wire. Apparently this was also an issue in the Allroad, so much so there was a software...

Are you aware that there is a button at the end of the gas pedal travel that triggers downshifting? If not, with the car off, push the pedal all the way down....

... I'm not a huge fan of the DBW. I notice it when trying to rev the engine - for example, when downshifting and trying to match the revs - you really have...
Wow advice really does grow on trees around here... Rather than obsessing over 4-cyl turbo vs. 6-cyl non-turbo I would recommend you concern yourself with the...
I beg to differ. If you want to drive a turbo that has no lag and compare it, go drive the BMW 335 coupe. That has no lag. In comparison it makes the Audi like...
that sux! :o( the 6 speed s4 dbw is not bad at all The tiptronic on my 1.8T has a bad habit of not downshifting, and then hesitating when you step on the...
Uh the hesitation from the stop is your lag. Is there supposed to be some other time you should feel it? Original Message ----------------------- In a message...
