I bought a 2017 S3 with 40k kms, best car I’ve owned so far, had to replace the water pump but I swear the OEM one is made of cardboard. No more expensive than any other car to service.
Got my water pump, PCV, and thermostat replaced a few months ago. Did it myself. If you're semi-handy I'd definitely recommend doing it yourself. My wallet was definitely happy I did haha
I had Saleri in for 50k miles with no issues. Then, after a cooling refresh, I bought Saleri again, and it's been 20k miles with no issues so far.
I have a 2018 A7 and I had to replace the water pump (which apparently is pretty standard). The dealership charged me $1450 in an affluent Philly suburb for what that\u2019s worth.
I owned a 2009 4.2L V8 S5, had to get a new water pump & housing. euro specialty shop did it for me for ~$700.
I had mine done on my 2018 S4 from an Audi dealer in PA. Cost me $3,928 total. They replaced the water pump and hoses, coolant regulating valve, vacuum control valves and lines, and the serpentine valve. The water pump is what failed and took everything else with it.
Audi doesn't have the best record with water pumps and housings. On the 8V S3, the pump would start to leak, but it would drip onto the splash guard and never make it to the ground. The only signs were coolant smell and frequently needing to top off the coolant.
2017 Q7 3.0T. Steadily using more oil over life of car. Now a quart every 350 miles. It doesnt have the power it used too. $1500 for a new water pump at 54,000 miles.
The only issue I’ve had with Audi over about 200k miles split between an 87 cs turbo Quattro and a 15 a5 cabrio is they each needed a water pump around 90k
Bought it in October, had it exactly 1 week, and the water pump blew. The dealer replaced it for free
