2000 Audi A6 Quattro Avant Wagon - Nicely Maintained, Owned By An Audi Guy on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
2000 Audi A6 Avant Quattro Black 4-door wagon, tan leather interior 129,000 miles · 2.8L 30v V6 engine (5 valves per cylinder) · Tiptronic automatic transmission (with manual shifting feature) · Permanent quattro all-wheel drive · HID Xenon headlamps · Audi Sympony sound system · Front and rear heated seats · Sunroof RECENT UPGRADES · 17” alloy wheels · Custom sport S6 stainless steel exhaust · Stainless steel braided brake hoses (F&R) · ATE super-blue brake fluid · Brand new OEM brake pads and rotors (F&R) · Brand new headlamps (crystal clear) HISTORY / MAINTENANCE · Bought in 2007 from 2nd owner · Run on only premium gas and synthetic oil for last 7 years / 50,000 miles · Front suspension arms, timing belt / water pump all replaced about 4 years ago I’ve owned this car for about 7 years and have done my best to keep it running right. I’ve been working for an Audi and/or Volkswagen dealer for the past 13 years in parts and service and have used my knowledge and available dealer resources to care for the car over the years. A recent career change came with a brand new VW company car, and now it is time for me to say goodbye to my A6 Avant. Before getting my new car, I was using the A6 almost every day, sometimes taking it on trips more than 300 miles and back. The car runs really well, but needs some work and I will do my best to disclose everything that I know is wrong. WHAT IS RIGHT WITH THE CAR: · Engine runs smoothly and quietly with full power; no excess engine noise and no exhaust leaks · The exhaust system is custom (but street legal), using the stainless steel Audi S6 rear mufflers, keeping stock catalytic converters (with new flex-couplings), but eliminating the center “suitcase” muffler – better flow and a nice, mellow, throaty growl around 2500-3000 rpm. Not loud, not obnoxious, sounds completely stock 80% of the time (including while idling) · Transmission shifts smoothly · Drives straight, no pulling or rattling from the suspension · Brakes are sharp and quiet (all brand new) · All electrical accessories, including windows, locks, HVAC, cruise, sunroof, mirrors and heated seats are operational · Air conditioning blows cold · Passed NY state / emissions inspection July 2013 WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR: · While the wheels look really good, they are not perfectly round. There is a slight vibration felt all around at about 60mph · Tires are worn – need to be replaced · Scratches and dings all around · There is a small coolant leak coming from the back of the engine (I believe it is coming from the crossover pipe). Again, there is no overheating issue, but I do need to top off the coolant once every 3 or 4 weeks · Check engine light comes on intermittently · Electric (A/C) cooling fan is very noisy when it is on (usually only while A/C is running, or in heavy traffic) – it functions perfectly and there is no overheating issue, just sounds like the bearing in the fan motor is shot (NEW REPLACEMENT FAN INCLUDED WITH SALE OF VEHICLE) · Shocks and springs are original and are starting to show their age; while there are no knocks or rattles coming from the suspension, it does feel a little soft… most driver’s would probably not know the difference, but if you are familiar with the way VWs or Audis are supposed to feel on the road · Front cupholders are not working properly (REPLACEMENT PARTS INCLUDED WITH SALE OF VEHICLE) Please note, as knowledgeable as I am about these cars, I can only attest to what I know now. I am in no way expressing any guarantee of condition or warranty of any kind. Vehicle is sold as-is, so if there is anything you would like to know, please ask prior to close of auction. Vehicle is located in New York City and buyer is responsible for cost of transport, sales tax, plates, insurance, etc… $500 due within 2 business days after the close of the auction via paypal, balance to be paid in cash or paypal prior to pickup of vehicle. Vehicle must be picked up / balanced paid within 7 days of close of auction or vehicle will be relisted and deposit forfeited. Sorry for the legal jargon, just want to make sure only serious buyers are placing bids. Happy bidding and good luck!

2014 Audi A4 next car to go on big diet while adding features
Sun, 07 Apr 2013The Audi A4 is expected to receive a major redesign over the next couple of years, and with the smaller A3 now gaining a sedan model, it is being reported that the A4 might be getting a little breathing room for a more advanced design and improved technology and features. According to AutoBild, this would include a drop of more than 200 pounds in curb weight, updated cabin tech and a wider variety of drivetrain options.
AutoBild states that Audi is looking to upgrade just about every detail - inside and out - when it comes to the 2014 Audi A4, and this includes a next-generation MMI system that uses two digital displays. Extensive use of magnesium, aluminum and plastics will help shave an estimated 220 pounds from the A4's curb weight, and in terms of engines, it sounds like the usual array of forced-induction, small-displacement gas and diesel engines will be on tap, but a bigger V6 TDI and a plug-in hybrid powertrain are also mentioned.
2016 Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron First Drive
Wed, Nov 4 2015While its parent company is still in the throes of an emissions scandal that has thrust the "green" credentials of automakers worldwide under the microscope, Audi is launching its first plug-in hybrid in the US. Audi is ready to double down on its electrified future, putting up its own reputation as collateral. This A3 Sportback E-Tron – a vehicle we've sampled in prototype form – is a tech-savvy plug-in car that could be the perfect vehicle to mark the brand's new commitment to an electric lifestyle. Straightaway, Audi USA President Scott Keogh addressed the TDI situation. He says he and the rest of the company are "shocked, followed by appalled, followed by anger, and now in the phase of drop-dead determination to make this thing right." Out of the 500,000 affected 2.0-liter TDI engines around the world, 14,000 are in Audis: about 3,000 A3 TDI sedans and about 11,000 A3 TDI Sportbacks. "It's quite simple. CARB and the EPA have told us these cars can stay on the road, they will stay on the road until we have a fix, and when we have a fix, we will absolutely fix these cars." The most important thing going forward, Keogh says, is regaining the trust of both the dealers and customers. Audi has been enjoying a bit of momentum in recent years, building a reputation for itself along the way. Audi came on the scene in the US in 1969, but it took until 2010 for the company to sell 100,000 units in a single year. Now, "In 2015, we're starting to look down the barrel of nearly doubling our sales in five years," says Keogh. The A3 achieves a 40-percent segment share, and for 75 percent of those buyers, it is their first purchase of a luxury brand. But as its own pace increases, the momentum of the industry as a whole has pulled Audi toward this foray into electromobility. Enter the A3 Sportback E-Tron. There's a little extra weight from the battery pack, but the suspension does a good job of keeping it unnoticeable while driving. The A3 E-Tron has several strengths working in its favor. First of all, as Keogh puts it, the hatchback is a "real, proper Audi – a real, proper, fully rounded driving machine." Qualifications such as "this is an electric car" don't matter. "People just want to buy a car," he says. It has the technology, build quality, and drivability of an Audi.
