For sale is our 1989 Audi Quattro 100 4dr. sedan which we owned for approximately 16 years. The vehicle has been great to us over the years and we have replaced many parts throughout the years to include a new steering rack, fuel pump ,headliner, and tires. and painted the original color with BASF Glasurit paint (flamingo metallic) with all dings being removed. The vehicle still looks great but may have a few dings here and there but overall it's a great car. Please continue reading.....
The most recent replacements was a complete overhaul of the a/c unit including flushing the lines and replacing the accumulator, evaporator, a/c line, a/c compressor and cleaning out the heater core. This was a huge job costing over $1,000. I recently replaced the clutch actuator (as it was leaking on the driver's floormat), replaced the starter a few hundred miles ago and last the radiator.
Now the strange part is after installing the radiator I checked for leaks and found none as I replaced the hoses and ensured I utilized 50/50 antifreeze and distilled water. The part that I can not figure out is that after I drove the vehicle a few times I noticed all was ok but after parking it and coming back from doing errands I noticed a good size puddle of antifreeze on the ground. I looked everywhere I cannot find where it is coming from as the hoses, radiator and heater core all looked dry and free of leaks. The only thing I can think of is the head gasket but the car still drives and runs great with no smoke out of the exhaust at all.
Overall the car is very clean and well taken care of and with a used vehicle comes some small things to do which in this case is the sunroof headliner is sagging but no big deal to fix. Tires are in good shape but could probably use some bushings in the rear control arms as they are worn. There are no noticeable dents other than the one I pushed out but it's located above the rear bumper and under the trunk lid and is not that bad. It's the size of a golf ball as somebody backed into the car a year or so ago and I did not want to put more money in the car as it's only cosmetic. The power windows work other than the right rear window and the power locks never worked when we bought it as these Audi's have air assisted or vacuum assist which was trouble-shot for hours with negative results, therefore we lock it manually.
Brakes are good with 4 wheel discs and manual shift (5 speed) A/C could use a recharging (R-12) as I did not convert it over to R134A. Otherwise it's been a great car and we are looking for someone else to take it and drive it for however many years and or miles. Thanks for looking and if any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
SOLD AS IS, NO GUARANTEES OR WARANTEES AVAILABLE
Thanks and Happy Bidding !!!

VW says it has sold over 100,000 TDI diesels in America this year
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Volkswagen Group of America has lit oil-burning fireworks to celebrate the sales of more than 100,000 TDI Clean Diesel vehicles in the US between its VW and Audi brands this year. According to VW, that means it is responsible for more than 75 percent of diesel-engined cars and SUVs sold here - perhaps not surprising when the two brands offer a total of 12 diesel models.
What might be surprising is that the number of diesels isn't far off the estimated sales of 90,000 battery electric vehicles and PHEVs, with 15,000 of those accounted for by the Tesla Model S, another 12,000 or so being the Toyota Prius PHEV.
VW's keen to play up the ease of making diesel part of your life, stressing that it doesn't need any change to the refueling infrastructure and that "this is a technology delivering real answers to society's concerns about fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions without compromises."
GRAND-AM, IMSA announce deal to bring DTM racing to US
Fri, 29 Mar 2013It won't be until 2015 at the earliest, but the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), Grand-Am and the Internationale Tourenwagen-Rennen have agreed to a licensing and cooperation deal that could bring a version of Germany's DTM series to the US.
When the American Le Mans Series and Grand-Am are officially combined next year, the resulting body will be called United SportsCar Racing (USCR). IMSA will be the sanctioning body for that series, and DTM races could be run as support events. It was also suggested by an ALMS chief that DTM races could be standalone or join NASCAR and IndyCar weekends.
With the so-called DTM America finally agreed to, there is now a way for manufacturers to run the same DTM-type cars in Europe, the US and Japan - last year Japan's Super GT series agreed to adopt "the basic technical regulations" of DTM for the GT500 class, the top class in the series. That already puts six manufacturers in play: Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW that run in Germany's DTM and Honda, Nissan and Lexus that run in Super GT. The DTM oversight body has invited American brands to Germany for the opening round of the 2013 season, and will begin actively courting their participation in the US series. Check out the press release from Audi with comments on the deal below.
Audi recalls 2013-2014 S6 and S7 models over fuel line leak
Mon, 28 Oct 2013If you've been driving a late model Audi S6 or S7, first of all, good for you. Secondly, you should be expecting a call from your local dealer as the Volkswagen Group and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall.
The problem apparently involves a potential leak in the fuel line, which, as any mechanic or McGuyver fan could tell you, is not such a good thing. As NHTSA points out, it "may result in a fire."
The recall involves 3,594 vehicles in these United States, specifically model-year 2013 and 2014 Audi S6 and S7 models equipped with the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. (It does not, however, seem to affect the S8 or any of the Bentleys that are powered by the same engine.) Owners of said cars can expect to be contacted regarding how the problem will be fixed. In the meantime you can read the official notice below.
