I've had both Sailun and Nexen (2010 Audi A4 Avant) and had no issues, even with Autobahn driving.
Audi A4 parts reviews
A4 b8.5 with 175k on it, only problem I had was a seized brake caliper.
Have carried out preventative maintenance though, so check your timing belt/water pump. Replaced control arms on the front and brakes.
The rest is just regular service and oil change religiously at 6k miles
Whenever possible, use OEM parts like TRW control arms. Same parts the dealers sell at significantly less cost.
Front axels, timing chain and tensioner, and that’s it for 80,000 miles. I thought the timing chain problem was addressed by Audi. Nope. But love it and it runs great.
Liqui Moly is the only oil I use. 198,000 miles and still purrs like a kitten.
Just buy liquimolly. Best oils I’ve ever put in my cars.
I run Leichtlauf 5W-40 on my B7 A4 2.0T; just hit \~250K km. Used to run Castrol and Motul but as I started doing my own oil changes, switched to the LiquiMoly stuff. Oil consumption issues gone, no complaints from me.
I always use Castrol, good quality oil won't hurt the engine and is just slightly more expensive than off-brands.
Haven\u2018t personally used this combo but the quietcast are decent OE replacement rotors
I stepped up to Brembo pads on my A4 and they are nothing to write home about performance-wise. They also dust like no other pad I've used.
