Audi B8 A4 experience?

I know B8 A4 line is getting old now, probably new one's coming out soon in a year or two.

I've been looking through some daily options, I would love to have 4 cylinder (fuel efficiency) and awd.

I was looking at some B8 A4s, as it fills both criteria.
Now, my close friends had B7 A4s and saw all their problems, so I am aware of some Audi reliability issues.

Does anyone have experience owning B8 A4 or driving long term?
Anything to look for?

thanks

Oil burning issues were common (don't know if they still are), also the early B8s had a water pump recall. Otherwise, pretty solid cars

If you could find an s line wagon, that would be amazing, though they are automatic only. I would get a 2011+ to get the fantastic 8 speed transmission unless you want a manual trans.
