An Audi A3 is expected to run smoothly for about 150,000 to 200,000 miles before requiring any major repairs like replacing the transmission or engine. Newer Audi models tend to outlast the older ones. To reach the 200,000-mile milestone or beyond, it's crucial to give your vehicle proper maintenance, such as regular oil changes and transmission fluid replacements. Using premium fuel can also extend your vehicle's lifespan. If you're purchasing a new Audi A3, it's wise to consider getting an extended warranty for added protection.
