2003 Audi Allroad 2.7l Turbo A6 Quattro Awd Wagon Navy Bose Leather Snow Tires on 2040-cars
Mammoth Lakes, California, United States
I am selling my beloved Audi Allroad. I love this car. I live in Mammoth Lakes, CA. This has been my "snow car" for 6 years now. I purchased it in 2007. After doing much research, I watched a video from Germany, where all the manufacturers raced their vehicles up a steep ski run. The Allroad was the only vehicle to make it to the top. I was sold on it. It hasn't disappointed.
I got a great deal on a Subaru Outback last July, and haven't been driving the Allroad much lately. I also have a truck. We simply don't need 3 vehicles, and I'm sick of paying the insurance and registration, so the Audi must go. Condition: Trying to be objective, I think this car is in pretty good shape for a 10-year old car with 90k miles on it. I've always changed the oil every 3k miles and done the routine maintenance. I stick the maintenance records in the glove box. Might need a new air filter soon. I might have a spare one lying around. If I do, I'll throw it in. I also have two sets of floor mats (all-weather and regular). I'll include both. Again, it has been in a snow town, so there are scratches and normal wear and tear all over. The pics show a dirty car, as it just snowed. A couple years ago, a snow removal vehicle hit my rear driver side door. It was replaced under insurance and has worked perfectly ever since. My wife was rear-ended at a red light by a drunk driver. We didn't fix it, as it didn't effect the integrity of the car. The car is a tank (you should see the damage to the drunk driver's car). Anyway, the damage is clear in the photos. Other than that, the leather is in good shape. The wood trim is in good shape. Some peeling has occured on the radio portion of the dashboard, and the veneer on the dash-mounted cup holder came off. There is a very minor oil leak, that we've had since we purchased the car. The Audi dealer says it's very normal in turbo-charged cars, at the seals. I've never had to add oil or anything. Never been an issue. Just wanted to mention it, because oil is noticeable on the skid plate when it's removed to change the oil. There is some grime/film over the headlights, but the auto-levelling xenon lights still work great. CD changer works great, Bose stereo is awesome. Heated seats are magical. Car has a lot of power. Twin Turbo kicks ass. The snow tires on the car right now still have a decent amount of tread left. The brakes are great, tons of stopping power. I have two keys for the car. The remote lock/unlock feature isn't working on the keys. The batteries died and need to be replaced. They might need to be re-programmed (there's some specific instructions on how to do it on the web or at the dealer) - I just put the key in the door to lock/unlock old school style. Only problems we've ever had have been electrical. Our local german mechanic has plugged in the diagnostics and re-set, and voila, back to good. The winshield wiper fluid reservoir has a leak - so the "low wiper fluid" light is constantly on because we don't even deal with it. We've also had the Tire Pressure Sensor be touchy at times. Sometimes that light goes on, even with tire pressure is perfect (we've never had the tires lose air at all). There are two cracks in the windshield (as is common in snow towns from the expanding/contracting from temp changes). You might wanna put a new windshield on, but we've just let it linger for a couple years. Also, the gas shocks in the trunk are shot. They cost about $65 to replace. I'm lazy to do it, because I rarely drive this car anymore, but you'll want to replace those. Otherwise, you've got to hold the trunk up by hand, and it's heavier than you think! You can check out a zillion websites for features, etc. All I've gotta say is, for the price I'm asking, this car is an absolute steal. History: I purchased it for $22,000 in 2007 with 36.5k miles on it. I bought it from a doctor in Boise, ID. He needed a mini-van for kids, and the car was in immaculate shape. I flew out to Idaho to buy it. I wanted the navy blue color and it's pretty rare. I Had it inspected by the local audi dealer, and they told me it was the cleanest Allroad they'd seen. Please, please, please, email me with any questions, or request more photos - I want to be completely forthcoming, and am not trying to hide anything. Free pickup in Mammoth Lakes, CA - or I will drive it down to Los Angeles area for $300. I'm also open to other delivery options, let me know if you're interested and let's see what we can work out. Thanks!! |

2016 Audi A4 is larger, lighter [w/video]
Mon, Jun 29 2015The 2016 Audi A4 arrives with a bang, but no surprises. We say that because the formula for creating the new A4 is one we know all too well. Make it larger, add a bunch of content, reduce weight, and improve both power and efficiency. It's a recipe for success, and this fifth-generation A4 looks to be a solid contender against its chief rivals, the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The shape hasn't changed; it's immediately recognizable as an A4. Instead, this new model updates that familiar design with sharper lines, similar to what we've seen on the new Q7, or even the R8. The big story here is that the 2016 A4 is up to 264 pounds lighter than its predecessor, depending on trim and engine. Additionally, the A4 is the most aerodynamic car in its class, boasting a drag coefficient of just 0.23. A fresh, modern cabin lies within that lighter shell – one that looks decidedly more upscale than the last A4. Many elements are reminiscent of the Audi Prologue concept that we first saw (and drove) in Los Angeles last year – specifically, the steering wheel, and the new MMI controls. In fact, Audi has positioned its infotainment controls closer to the center console – in front of the gear selector. This reminds us of the current A8, where Audi specifically designed its shifter to act as a sort of wrist rest. You can rest your arm on the gear lever and still access all of the MMI functionality. Speaking of which, that's the latest generation of Audi's MMI interface, packing navigation, touch capability, LTE connectivity, and WiFi in the 8.3-inch color display. Audi isn't saying which engines will come to the United States right now, but when the new A4 launches, it'll be offered with three gasoline and four diesel engines in Europe. Our best guess is that the US-spec car will come with the latest 2.0-liter TSFI turbocharged inline-four with 272 horsepower, as well as Audi's tried-and-true 2.0-liter TDI diesel four. Front- and all-wheel drive will be available, and for the first time, two-wheel-drive models will get a proper dual-clutch transmission – no more CVT. There's a whole lot more to lean about the A4 in the press release, posted after the reveal video. You can also see the 2016 A4 in sedan and Avant forms in the galleries above and below – it's unclear if the wagon will make its way to the US. The A4 Avant has been sold here before, but currently, Audi only offers that more functional bodystyle in Allroad spec.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
1956 DKW Audi electric van beautifully restored
Thu, Jan 29 2015These days, electric vehicles that make commercial deliveries aren't entirely rare. UPS has a small fleet in California, and at least 5,000 Renault Kangoo Z.E. models are in use by France's national postal service. But the history of this concept is much older. In fact, one of the companies represented by Audi's four rings had an example about 60 years ago. Audi Tradition just completed a full restoration of this blue 1956 DKW Elektro-Wagen to add to the company's collection of historic vehicles. It's quite a rare find because only two are still known to exist. Audi estimates that DKW built about 100 of these electric vans between 1955 and 1962, and they were primarily sold to energy companies, public utilities and battery makers. To create the EV model, DKW took its normal Schnellaster delivery van and replaced the model's two-stroke engine with an electric drivetrain. The vans weren't exactly speedy, though. The motor produced about 6.7 horsepower and lead-acid batteries offered 200 amp hours of power running at 80 volts. It gave the Elektro-Wagen a claimed range of about 50 miles and a 25 mile-per-hour top speed. Following the restoration, Audi took van to the island of Wangerooge in the North Sea to show it off. The location is perfect, too, because vehicles with internal combustion engines are banned on the island. If you can read German, feel free to find out more in the press release below. „DKW Elektro-Wagen" zu Audi heimgekehrt Einen von zwei verbliebenen DKW Elektro Schnellaster restauriert Klein-Bus einst auf der Nordseeinsel Wangerooge im Einsatz Audi Tradition prasentiert einen aussergewohnlichen Neuzugang in seiner historischen Sammlung: einen „DKW Elektro-Wagen" von 1956. Zwischen 1955 und 1962 produzierte die Auto Union GmbH in Ingolstadt DKW Schnellaster – etwa 100 davon als Elektro-Automobile, die das Unternehmen vor allem an Energieunternehmen, Stadtwerke oder Batteriehersteller verkaufte. Bei dem nun nach aufwandiger Restauration „heimgekehrten" Elektro-Schnellaster handelt es sich um ein besonderes Exponat: Der DKW fuhr auf der Nordseeinsel Wangerooge, wo Automobile mit Verbrennungsmotoren verboten sind. Normalerweise war der DKW Schnellaster mit einem Zweitaktmotor ausgestattet - der „Elektro-Wagen" hingegen mit einem funf Kilowatt (kw) leistenden Reihenschluss-Motor. Die seitlich in zwei Kasten gelagerten Bleibatterien hatten eine Nennspannung von 80 Volt und eine Kapazitat von 200 Amperestunden (AH).
