Vehicle Description
Up for your consideration is a very rare 2011 Audi Q7 TDI Diesel. What makes this car so unique is its list of options. It is the top of the line Prestige Package with the S-line option. To one up any other S-line Prestige, it is equipped with the adjustable factory air ride option and the $6300 Bang & Olufsen stereo. I have had several of these cars and I can tell you that I have never seen a air-ride B&O car in person. In fact when I went ot the Audi dealership to buy the all weather mats, they had never seen a car with all of these options. Todays sticker price on this car would push it close to $90k. This car is NOT a 1 owner, but does have a clean car history and has never been wrecked. It has not been smoked in or abused, always being adult driven. I purchased the car about 2 1/2 years ago from a family of dealerships that sold it new in Birmingham, Alabama. When I purchased the car it had about 20,000 miles on it and I drove the car for a few months. As a dealer I drove it until I was able to find another S-line Q7 tdi, I never titled it and sold it just under 2 years ago with about 26,000 miles on it. It then belonged to a local attorney who drove the car up until a few weeks ago. I was able to trade back for the car wearing right at 53,000 miles. In the last week I cleaned the car up and installed the 22in Tire and wheel package. Prior to me selling the car back in 2012 I had all four 21in Factory S-line wheels refurbished and installed new 21in tires. When I received the car last week I removed the factory 21s as they all had curb rash and the tires were near slicks! The 22in wheels are massive 22x10 TSWs wrapped in Yokohama 315-30-22s, they are not staggered so they can be rotated. The only downfall to the factory 21s or these 22s is a fair amount of road noise due to a tread width similar to a turbo Porsche! I will continue to drive the car until it sells and will accumulate more miles. Everything works as it should and the car is very clean inside and out. I personally cleaned the entire undercarriage and inspected all steering and suspension components along with axles, engine, and transmission. The air ride works perfectly and does not leak at all! The car is now out of its factory warranty and I am uncertain if a Audi warranty can be purchased. The car has always been dealer maintained which is not difficult in that the diesel engine has 10,000 miles interval oil changes using the recommended synthetic oil. It is now about halfway through its 50-60k service. The diesel engine will yield about 19mpg around town and 26-28 on the highway. Included in the sale will be both transponder keys and a valet key along with the owners manuals. I do not have the service records but the Audi dealership in Birmingham and Ft. Worth will have the maintenance records. In my opinion the Audi is leaps and bounds better than the Mercedes GL or ML. I can tell you from experience the air ride on the Mercedes is junk and always seems to fail just out of warranty along with a leaking steering rack. I have also had many issues with the power rear hatch on the Mercedes....Knock on wood, I have yet to see any of these problems on a Audi!

Mercedes could make EV batteries with Audi, BMW
Mon, Sep 21 2015It's not a big leap from digital maps to batteries, it turns out.The head of Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler said recently that he envisions his company working together with German automotive competitors BMW and Volkswagen to further accelerate electric-vehicle battery technology. The three automakers recently worked together to enhance their in-car maps systems. Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche talked about "commonalities" between automakers, not the least of which is the need for all of them to achieve increasingly stringent fuel-economy requirements in the European Union, at the Frankfurt Auto Show last week, according to Reuters. While these companies have made their own inroads as far as plug-in vehicles go, they are all behind the Renault-Nissan Alliance when it comes to public deployment of electric vehicles. This summer, Daimler, Audi and BMW hooked up to acquire the Nokia Here digital-mapping service for about $2.8 billion. The triad of automakers beat out companies such as Apple and Uber to buy the entity, which was founded in 1986 as Navteq. Nokia bought the company in 2007. The acquisition makes sense as the automakers work on improving their products with features like cloud-based data to warn drivers of icy roads and traffic jams. The technology will likely also eventually be used in autonomous vehicles. Automakers working together for a common goal of improved technology is nothing new, of course. General Motors and Honda agreed in 2013 to work together to accelerate hydrogen fuel-cell drivetrain development. Earlier that same year, Daimler said it would work with Ford and Nissan in a separate collaboration to speed up the development of hydrogen fuel-cell technology. Related Video:
Dysfunctional dashboards: Auto suppliers competing to clean up the cockpit
Thu, Jun 29 2017SAN FRANCISCO - Peer at the instrument panel on your new car and you see sleek digital gauges and multicolored screens. But behind the dashboard, here's what US auto supplier Visteon Corp found: a mess. As automotive cockpits become crammed with ever more digital features such as navigation and entertainment systems, the electronics holding it all together have become a rat's nest of components made by different parts makers. Now the race is on to clean up the clutter. Visteon is among a slew of suppliers aiming to make dashboard innards simpler, cheaper and lighter as the industry accelerates toward a so-called virtual cockpit - an all-digital dashboard that will help usher in the era of self-driving cars. What's at stake is a piece of the $37 billion cockpit electronics market, estimated by research firm IHS Market to nearly double to $62 billion by 2022. Accounting firm PwC estimates that electronics could account for up to 20 percent of a car's value in the next two years, up from 13 percent in 2015. Meanwhile, the number of suppliers for those components is likely to dwindle as automakers look to work with fewer companies capable of doing more, according to Mark Boyadjis, principal automotive analyst at IHS Markit. "The complexity of engineering 10 different systems from 10 different suppliers is no longer something an automaker wants to do," Boyadjis said. He estimates manufacturers eventually will work with two to three cockpit suppliers for each model, down from six to 10 today. DIGITAL MAKEOVER One of Visteon's solutions is a computer module dubbed "SmartCore." This cockpit domain controller operates a vehicle's instrument cluster, infotainment system and other features, all on the same tiny piece of silicon. So far this year, the Detroit-based company has landed two big contracts for undisclosed sums. One, announced in April, is with China's second-largest automaker, Dongfeng Motor Corp. The other is with Mercedes-Benz, Reuters has learned. Mercedes did not respond to requests for comment. Another unnamed European automaker plans to use the system in 2018, according to Visteon. Visteon is going all-in on cockpit electronics, having shed its remaining automotive climate and interiors businesses in 2016. The bet so far is paying off. The company secured $1.5 billion in new business in the first quarter, helped by growth in China. Visteon's stock price is up more than 50 percent over the past year.
Audi releases quartet of A3 commercials, likely headed for Super Bowl
Fri, 27 Dec 2013With the announcement from Audi that it's new A3 would be the star of this year's Super Bowl advertising efforts still relatively fresh, it comes as a bit of a shock that what may be game-bound ads for the new small car are already starting to show up.
A3forums found four ads for the new A3, all of which are currently unlisted on YouTube, that play on the idea of young drivers saving themselves for the right luxury car. The spots are amusing, although we'll admit that we've seen better from Audi. Each spot plays like a clip from a documentary, with owners of cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus talking about their regrets when it came to buying a luxury car, rather than waiting for the A3.
We've got all four videos below, so take a look now, as we're betting they'll be pulled before too long.
