Hey guys,

I am new to the audi world, and i love everything about them, im all ears to anything you guys say.

I am in the market for an audi a4, but have heard mixed reviews on the engine differences. Ive heard the 1.8t is more powerful than the 3.0L quattro. Then ive heard the 3.0L in the a4 provides great power. Does anybody have input on what engine is best for a audi a4? i live in ohio so base the opinion on any engine cons on snowdriving. All input is greatly appreciated!!

Thanks, bwalt12

 

hey welcome to the forums. if you want to mod your car later down the line get the 1.8t if not then the 3.0 is an excellent motor for you
