Category: Audi A7 Forum

In the A6 4G forum there is a long report on wind noise. The A6 4G obviously has a lot to do with wind noise, various retrofits (changed door and window seals) are currently being tested. I had expected the A6 to be significantly better with regard to wind noise than the A7 with its frameless windows – and that would be the only reason that would let me grab the A6. I recently had an A7 BiTDI (model 2012 and with D I found the 3.0 TFSI without insulating glass to be quite loud with regard to the wind noise, i.e. much louder than my A6 4F with insulating glass. I found the BiTDI with insulating glass to be very quiet at high speeds, but at Tempi around 100 (i.e. typical country road tempi) I was not enthusiastic about the noise comfort. What experiences did you have with wind noise at the A7? Were also retrofits necessary with you (e.g. Reposition the door, exchange sealing rubbers) and if necessary, have there been product improvements in the series? Here in the forum there is also one or the other that has already changed. Thank you in advance for your answers!

I am currently driving a BMW E61 535d, which runs out of leasing in just under 5 months and is thinking about changing to an A7. I haven’t had an Audi yet, therefore a question about the “Bluetooth Auto Telefon Online”, which I could not yet clarify: Both the phone and the separately ordered operator have a SIM card reader. What does this mean in practice? In my BMW I have currently connected an older Nokia phone firmly to the car, which has its own SIM card. Dam I can make phone calls and it also works all the online services of the car (Internet, Mails……). I mean to have heard that the BMW itself has an internal SIM card installed. Which SIM card reader do I have to use in the Audi in order to be able to use all the online functions next to the phone? Do I even need two SIM cards?

Hello guys, I’m still in the decision phase and I’m almost through with the configuration. However, two questions still torment me, to which I will probably not find an answer from my personal experience, because the available demonstration vehicles for test drives are very rare here in the environment…. There are now in the short choice the two larger diesels with 245 and 313 hp. Since only recently the smaller of the two has been changed to Tiptronic , there are no demonstrators yet, a comparison with the larger one is not possible. What interests me is the following: maybe someone can write here from his own experience, how the engines behave in comparison in the speed ranges beyond 200km/h or better 220. Maybe there is one or the other one who has already gleaned the vehicles in these areas? My guess is that everything goes up to 200-220 with the smaller one, but what passi Furthermore, the question of whether the air suspension is really so much better than the series suspension. Or is it enough series? I have to say that I have to reckon with an additional price of only 70 Euro mtl. for the large engine including the air suspension, which is not even so much, but if both is unnecessary, I don’t have to have it either. Therefore I ask for your support. Thank you! Greeting automatic

Hello, I just signed up here because I think that I can be helped here I bought an audio a7, 3.0 tdi quattro (245 ps) (juuuhhhuuu ) I have a few questions and that – can I upgrade a mmi-TOUCH and how high would the costs be – is it quite difficult to “clip” the decor bars “out of the box” (I would like to repaint them, who has experiences with it?) – there are different sizes peculiar to the screen or is the same with everyone – how is the sou nd with the 245 ps engine, because I would like to have a “bad” sound from the end pipes, I will rather be disappointed with the engine or …? And who has experiences with a new exhaust system or the sound-defusor of 313 ps engine (or can you do something else) – how can I get the speed meters when switching on to the impact and go back again (as with the s7) – and are the 245 ps drivers satisfied with their audio or do you have any faults to complain Hab im net nach antw places searched unfortunately are still open Thanks for quick answers

Hello forengemeinde, at the moment I am about to buy a new car. Since I prefer Audi it was clear to me that it would become an Audi! I fluctuated between the A5 Sportback and the A7 Sportback, but later on. 1. I fluctuated between the Audi A7 engines 2.8 FSI (204 hp) and 3.0 TFSI (310 hp) both V6 engines. Therefore, my first question. Do you notice the more than 100 hp difference? If yes, when. Do the 204 hp also have neat fuss, so that you can get it in the vehicle as with the A4 Av with 272 hp? Do you need the 310 hp or do you already have 204 hp? 2. Is a row 4 cylinder petrol engine always better than a V6 engine? 3. Where is a difference between the A5 SB and the A7 SB, next to the other class, weight. The length is only very low, it is only 20 cm, right? Which would you take? Advantages and disadvantages, please.

Hello Audi-community, after a few years of rest, I would like to say a few words in this section. I play with the thought of leaving my 545i (finally). As successor, next to a 550i, a 640d, there is an A7 with 3.0 BiTDI to choose from. Why an Audi in the series? Because the Fzg. most appeals to me from the design. 🙂 Furthermore, he has four doors, which makes it extremely easier to place smaller people in the rear seat. In addition, many 550i have a Macke, which with defective Injectors are connected. I haven’t been able to read negatives of the 3.0 BiTDI yet. But now to the actual. Would you exchange an 8 cylinder for a 6 cylinder? Is the 3.0 BiTDI really as strong as shown in the test videos? Or would such an exchange be a mistake from the performance as well as from the quietness of the run? The suit of the TDI is quite neat, only what happens beyond the 200 km/h? You can get used to the “sound system”, although an S7 “realist” ischer” sounds like V8. But that only on the edge – I could arrange with it. 🙂 We leave the maintenance aside except for the consumption. The 3.0 BiTDI ranks in insurance and tax at the moment cheaper than mine. It depends on the engine alone. Is there experience about the longevity? I have read in another topic that some with the converter automatics have problems and the engine can therefore not fully develop its performance at all times. What would you like to do? I guess?

I already know that Audi unfortunately does not include a new multimedia solution such as the new MMI 5G system , known from the new Audi A3 , in the revised version . Furthermore, there will hardly be any changes / innovations to the assistance systems . As with the Audi A8 facelift , only the radiator grill / singleframe grill and the headlights were processed here . In terms of multimedia and assistance system innovations this is nothing here . The “new” assistance system we are highly true This is the real hope, otherwise I see black for this brand. Actually, I have a lot of confidence in this brand, but now that I see the right innovations of the competition that are already being offered so early, with the “progress” at Audi clearly missing. I only say traffic jam assistant or parking assistant of the next generation: The car is now also gassing when parking itself. O b that everything still comes into the A4, that I like to doubt but otherwise Audi has to suffer a lot. Audi you sleep! Wake up! The A4 just comes out much too late! Did you sleep there during the development work or did the Hackenberg really plan real revolutions that should knock you down? Probably not … And why is there actually no Audi pre sense plus (radar sensors) for the NEW (!!; in which should something like this be offered) TT? Films can be offered? I don’t look any more in this sporty tuned vehicle … So, Audi has to do something else the clientele is running away from it… Aso and you think that the MMI 5G (in the new A3) comes into the new Audi A4 or a revised version with more features (MMI 6G ?)?

Hello, I intend to lease a used Audi A7. The monthly leasing costs of a new A7 for a value of 48000 € (discount included and no deposit) cost about 700 €- 800 €. What would it look like if I leased a used A7 for a value of 40 000 € for 36 months with 10000 km of driving performance per year? Would it mean that the leasing costs would be considerably lower than a new vehicle in the month? Of course, I don’t expect exact figures, but I wouldn’t expect to see a new car. I’m glad if someone could tell me about what you can get for a used A7 monthly. Greetings Azami

Hello community! I have a used A7 in front of me. I come from Austria and there are prices a bit high for nn A7. Got some questions for you. Found an A7 3.0 TDI.Price: 28.500 Euro Here are some data: – Audi A7 3.0TDI Sportback 245PS – year of construction 12/2011 (model 2012) – 190.000 with complete service booklet (company car and a lot of highway KM…) – brown leather equipment – seat heater – cruiser – S-Tronic transmission – Keyless GO – PDC front and rear -Schie roof – curved light – LED headlights etc, etc, Of course I will lead it directly to a test at Audi. What do you say? Are these too many kilometers? Is the price ok? And will there be problems with the kilometers? LG SvP

Hello together, since I find the S7 front with the discreet chrome parts very successful I think of these parts also in my A7 with S-line optics package to install. So the two grill inserts right and left and the middle bug spoiler. According to Audi however, a grid should cost already 105 €, quite happy as I find ;( Can someone tell me if these parts definitely fit and maybe also get something cheaper? The friendly may not express itself to the fit, since Audi doesn’t want cars to be converted to this look ;( And before someone comes back with blender etc. I just find the look very nice I’m not really interested in pretending to be someone I’ve got an S7 I’ve been out of age for a long time…
