#1 of 2 AUDI A4 noise levels by sreebobby Jun 15, 2009 (8:03 pm)
I just purchased a 2008 A4 2.0 T , 4 cylinder turbo with 16,000 miles on it. I am pretty happy with the car's performance except for the noise levels. The car seems noisy compared to the other cars that i have driven & this seems to a worrying factor for me. I could'nt notice much during the test drive for some reason. Is this common among all the audi's ? I have read reviews that AUDI's are noisy because of the turbo engine. Is there any way i could the noise levels by getting something done. Waiting for your valuable responses on this. Replies to this message: rascal99 (Jun 17, 2009 4:22 pm)

Replying to: sreebobby (Jun 15, 2009 8:03 pm) By "noisy" I assume you are referring to the engine noise and particularly when the car is idling. I have an 07 A4 2.0T and yes the engine is a bit loud, sort of like a diesel. The reason for this has to do with the direct injection. This may sound stupid but don't focus on it. Turn up the radio a tad and be happy with the car, because it is a characteristic of these engines you really can't remove.
