Known issues to check on a 2016 Audi A7
- 3.0L TDI Diesel Emissions Repair Status (2014–2016)
Every 2014-2016 A7 TDI is covered by the 3.0L diesel emissions settlement. Audi offered an EPA- and CARB-approved Emissions Compliant Repair at no charge, and 2016 TDIs were held from sale until it was approved. A TDI should have that repair performed and documented.
What to do: Ask for proof of the emissions repair and check the VIN with Audi before buying an A7 TDI. - Supercharged 3.0T V6 Cooling and Oil Leaks (2012–2018)
The 2012-2018 supercharged 3.0T V6 is strong and widely used, but as mileage builds it is known for coolant leaks (water pump and thermostat) and oil leaks such as the PCV system and valve-cover gaskets. These are common repairs rather than certain failures.
What to do: Check for coolant and oil leaks, and value cars with documented water-pump or thermostat replacement. - Direct Injection, Oil, and Premium Ownership Costs (2012–2025)
A7 engines use direct injection, which can build carbon deposits over time, and they are sensitive to on-time oil changes with Audi-approved oil. As a luxury car with large wheels, tires, brakes and repairs cost more than a mainstream sedan's.
What to do: Favor cars with complete Audi-schedule maintenance records and budget for premium tires and service. - A7, S7, RS7, and A6 Disambiguation (2012–2025)
This record covers the A7. The S7 (2013-2018 V8; 2020-2025 twin-turbo V6) and RS7 (2014-2018 and 2021 on) are separate, much faster models with different engines and costs. The A7 is closely related to the A6 sedan, and after 2025 Audi's new A6 replaces it in the U.S.
What to do: Confirm whether the car is an A7, S7 or RS7 before comparing prices or specs.
Recall applicability varies by model year, production date, engine, equipment, and VIN. Check the VIN for current open recalls and completed remedies; for TDI models, also confirm the emissions repair status.
