Many thanks Gareth - I will take your advice 👍

(I've tried a search, however the forum search function isn't working at the moment)

My petrol 2012 A4 TFSi user manual says to use VW 504 00 engine oil 

What does this translate to -

5W-40 or 5W-30?

(I will be buying fully synthetic)

Thanks in advance,

Colin

Okay Gareth,

I've just done what you suggested and went back to the same online insurance company and entered details of the 911 (it was a 2005 plate) I sold last week.

The quote came back 72% higher than last year! So you were indeed correct - its the premiums that have sky rocketed this year!

So in fact my change to the A4 has saved me lot of money on insurance!

Many thanks for your sage advice 🙂

Cheers,

Colin

Hi Gareth,

It's an excellent point that you make. Clearly I can't make a true comparison, it would be interesting to know what my renewal quote would have been for the 911 - it was due in October. I may use a comparison site for a wider range of companies just to see if I can reduce the premiums a little.

Many thanks.

Hi,

Just bought a 2012 A4 1.8 TFSI s-line Black Edition (168 bhp)

I came from a 911 (997 Carrera S).

I was expecting my car isurance to go down as the 911 was group 50 and the Audi is group 26 - also the Audi is a third of the value of the 911.

However, 2 quotes so far give the same or higher for the A4! I'm in shock!

Is this model costly to ensure?

Many thanks
