Audi Q7 2008Change

Luxury comes at a price and this is the one. Maintenance cost is high but it pays with the driving pleasure, utility and quattro performance like none other and a class above. Have driven other luxury SUVs ML, X5, RX but liked Q7 over those. The new shape is awesome and will trade this one at an appropriate time.

Lets face it, Its got the looks and the panache of ANY luxury SUV. Which means ownership comes with all the luxury expenses.
Gas station fill ups cost around $130-150, using 94 premium. (Mine has the computer chipped and therefore requires 94.)
Oil changes are around $200 and require 3 tanker loads of oil. Service at Audi dealerships is ridiculous.I go the VW dealer and they treat you right.
I was left stranded one day over a failed $7.00 coolant sensor. The engine thought the temp was sky high and would not let me start. Fair enough though, what if it had been?
All in all its like any car, they all have their quarks and fun moments. The 4.2L engine does the job hauling this 5000lb beast around, although is a little breathless at high rpm.
Interior is gorgeous. Enough said.
Transmission is ok, they have switched them since.
Would i buy another one? Probably not. Recently i was in a 2013 Jetta Hybrid......Hmmmm.

Very realiable, in all way, No Matter what is the road condition this SUV have road grip all the time.

I owned my Q7 S-line for 2years and I really loved it ,the Quattro all wheel drive system is fantastic specially on the snow covered roads, it has a stylish interior and exterior ,and a factory warranty is amazing ,it's really bumper to bumper .
Only dislike about it is the gas mileage ,it's terrible on gas .
