Dude I get it's a nice car, I already know it's a nice car, that's why I'm watching this video, you should've gone through what maintenance problems you have had and how much youve spent on the car since your purchased it. You just gave us a walk around of the car and showed it off.
Hi Jack, I'm currently saving for an A7. Will hopefully get it next year. My absolute dream car, although I wrestled with going careful and getting the 2.0 diesel A6. Looking at 2013/2014 tdi A7 as the price jumps quite a bit here for the facelift that happened in the 2015 model. Audi repairs are usually cheaper in Europe. Although the amount of work you had to get done is crazy.😅 You should do a night vision video of the car or go through all the toys in it. Maybe you have in a previous video.
Hey thats a good goal, I would love to do a video with that night vision system however my car doesnt have it, I believe my car has the most basic prestige package and only had a few options on it, I do plan on making another video on the car soon
@@Jackw920 cool Man. I'm subbed. In Europe we call them SE for basis, then Sline for the nicest one..black edition can be very nice but low on tech. We also have a tech package called technic. Hard to decide between top spec 2012/2013. Or low spec 2015. But with facelift and newest led lights, etc. Keep up the good work.
@@killerblue1 when it comes to these cars first thing I say is make sure you can afford the repairs on any of them and then go for the highest options you can get because most likely its worth it
I bought a 2015 A7.. and I’m tired of it already..had it 16 months..engine problems with carbon cleaning & bent valves in bank 1..CarShield is a joke.. I paid 3,000😤
You don’t buy a care like this used if you care about reliability, maintenance bills are always gonna be costly and the thing that saved me is having a warranty, incredible car all around apart from reliability
Hi Jack thanks for this video, please I need your advice am thinking of getting a used Audi A7 from 2011 to 2014 year. What’s your advice for me and what trim you advice me to go for, and out what KM you think I should get. Thank you
@@bobsean3466 this car was launched in 2012. Make sure the car you buy has a service record from the dealership and it also has an extended warranty. Those are the best.
I had one ,2012.3.0TTFSI,it cost of repair is as high as ten thousand dollars in 2021.FE：air suspension，dual clutch transmission，ACC， Seat ventilation，Three way catalysis........
Thanks, the warranty was about 4k and as we kept claiming things with the warranty they would get more stubborn and not work with us as much, but thats probably because the warranty has paid for itself at this point
@@Jackw920 how much do think they've hashed out so far? I'm looking at the sweettt one with 99k miles on it but it looks very clean and well maintained. I would definitely be getting to get a warranty with it so I'm shopping around but what would your advice be on the purchase?
@@michaelomokaro4047 well I would say to make sure the warranty isnt based on miles first because they wont usually go past 105k miles for coverage, my warranty, red shield, has dished out about 5k in repairs with more to come
i had the 3.0 tdi, 7g tronic, 245 hp, and was the worst decision ever, every day it wuold have broken something new, chain, dpf, chassis, gear changing, electronics, audio, like... EVERYTHING, money eater, glad i sold it
@@Jackw920 Hey! Oh sorry, the question was for capac and his horrible purchase, haha! Totally love audi A7's and looking for one myself. But how is TFSI treating you, I heard they love to eat a lot of motor oil..
You own a amazing car unfortunaly you have NO IDEA what to do with it. That is the most basic a7 iv seen you need to paint those wheels, you need to tint those rear windows. You need to dechrome all round. And change the got damn steering wheel 😂 sport cars aren't for everyone. Take care
Well unfortunately not everyone has that same opinion of the car, its not a sports car despite its impressive performance, I actually like having a stock A7 rather than modifying it because it is a better daily driver and my warranty company wont drop me. That being said the mods you are describing are mods you would do to an 06 350z not a $20k+ audi, this is a nice car not a rice rocket

Welcome my friend, hopefully we can both find something better
What is bent valve? Why does carbon need to be cleaned?
The scratch and exhaust can be done I do it myself day in day out
Honest thoughts on reliability?? What do maintenance bills look like on one of these? Trying to buy in the next 3-4 months or so

My advice is that you go for the highest trim you can find in any of those years because the features is what makes the car
@@Jackw920 sure thanks

It probably did, I took it in for service and they didnt reset the service timer so it always says that message now :/
@@Jackw920 i meant i read service "dude" instead of service "due"

I have a 2012 A7 as well. Where did you order the new grill from? Looks nice.
Ebay lol, id reccomend finding one with all the clips and sensor holders because I didnt and had to drill holes
The N on the engine start is normal. That’s the way it looked before the detail. Lol.
Its not but I will maybe get a replacement button soon
Love the review man, how much was the warranty you got? and were there any issues filing a claim in your process of owning the car?
