In 2000 or '01 with +- 4500 miles the car was damaged in the rear and driver's side. It was sent to a body shop for estimate and the body shop totaled the car. The bod shop owner recognized it was all sheet metal damage and bought the salvage intending to repair it for himself. It sat in the back of his shop for a decade under a tarp. A couple years ago, the shop owner was preparing to retire and offered to repair the car for my cousin's husband (himself a mechanic). There was a list of finishing details left to do, but the car was on the road. My cousin drove it on occasion for a couple years, but usually opted for her SUV - she lives in the mountains and 20 miles of dirt and gravel roads daily would do the car no good. Now she's moving, and doesn't want to deal with the car ... so she sold it to me. I've been working on the car a bit at a time, but as the song goes, this car needs a younger man. I have yet to fix the L Ft headlamp (needs bulb & ballast (I have them), the horn (inop), the ck engine light (intake leaks), and the airbag light ( code says impact sensor open). That will get it through Md state inspection. That should confirm it's a drivable car. I also want to get an alignment print out. It tracks perfectly true, but the Driver's door doesn't shut right and the shop inspection noted that a used rear sub frame and R diff are fitted and the R sub frame bolts are tweaked. (should have been put on a frame machine?) I would like to confirm the alignment is in spec. Here's a walk around of the car in annoying detail : Ft bumper clear coat peeling @ top center No ft tag bracket installed (I have new bracket - no holes in ft fillet) No ft L fender liner installed Driver's door mis-aligned (closes and latches, no air or water leaks, paint flaked from distorted top hinge, uneven gap, un addresses crash damage) small crease/dent on driver's C pillar Spot of peeled clear coat on top of the trunk lid R sub frame & rear diff appear older than the rest of the car (r sub frame bolts mis aligned Bushing noise from rt ft AND THE INTERIOR: Info display in cluster faded Ck engine light on (diagnosed as intake leaks both banks) Air bag light on (diagnosed as open to 1 impact sensor) Steering wheel appears older than the car, great condition, slight ding on badge Ft seats appear older than the car, great condition, but appear to have been swapped, odd finish on pass seat bottom Driver's door inner latch has slack, sometimes doesn't release door latch Clear coat peeling on door guard molding Tie down eyes removed from trunk floor Little storage box missing from pass inner trunk wall Lock pump runs excessively long, rear doors do not lock/unlock with power locks Back edge of package shelf mis-aligned Rear window has annoying tint Pass rear shelf speaker fuzzy (I have a spare correct speaker) Pass rear door spkr grill broken, speaker fuzzy, ( I have a whole spare door panel w/bose spkr grill and also separately another correct speaker) Original stereo sounds fuzzy (even at very low volume, both radio and CD) only when it's damp/rainy ??? clears up when it's dry (cowl drains are clear, possible issue with amp??? you got me) Virtually no radio reception AM or FM (antenna booster?) UNDER THE HOOD: Cowl drain was clogged, flooded (I cleared it and treated the area with WD) Needs brake fluid flush & bleed Prob needs eng air & pollen fltrs PLUSSES: Runs perfectly, starts normally timing belt inspected and confirmed healthy Brand new Conti DWS 18" Tires 18" Audi accessory BBS's has not been performance chipped or abused - absolutely stock engine and, oh yeah, UNDER 7000 ORIGINAL MILES ! The car needs some TLC but looks good, runs perfectly, tracks straight, and for the right person has show car potential. At this moment it has 6200 - HUNDRED, not thousand - original miles. It must be the lowest mileage B5 S4 in the country if not anywhere. I'll soon post a load more photos and info. Anybody interested??? |

2016 Audi A6 to start at $46,200*, A7 begins at $68,300*
Wed, Apr 22 2015Audi has announced pricing on the new A6 sedan and A7 four-door coupe, with the former starting at $46,200 for a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder and front-wheel drive. Of course, things can and do climb rapidly from there. Adding Quattro all-wheel drive to the four-cylinder model bumps the price up $2,200, while moving from the base Premium to the mid-level Premium Plus trim will add $3,700, regardless of the drivetrain. Speaking of that Premium trim, it's only available on the 2.0-liter A6. Every other variant starts with the Premium Plus. At that point, the cheapest six-cylinder you can get is the $57,400 model, while the diesel-powered A6 TDI starts at $59,500. Moving up to the top-end Prestige trim bolsters the price by $4,200, for both engines. If you fancy the sleeker lines of the A7, the entry-level 3.0-liter Premium Plus can be had for $68,300, while the TDI runs $70,400. While the starting price is higher than the A6, adding the Prestige trim is more reasonable, with both engines demanding $2,650 for the top-tier equipment level. And of course, we can't get away without mentioning Audi's high-performance models. A base S6 Premium Plus begins at $70,900, while the Prestige is $75,300. The S7 and RS7, both of which are limited to the Prestige trim level, start at $82,900 and $108,900, respectively. None of the above prices include the standard $925 destination charge. Scroll on down for the official press release on the pricing changes for the new Audi A6 and A7.

Audi gets into tablet market with Android-powered Smart Display
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Relatively small in newsworthiness compared with laser-equipped hybrids and all-new cockpit concepts, Audi has also announced a branded, Android-powered tablet called Smart Display at CES this week.
Audi has partnered with Google for its in-car computing software for years now, so it's hardly surprising to hear that its first foray into the world of tablets runs a Google OS (which one is still unclear), and has Android guts. Sorry, iPad users. The 10.2-inch tablet wears a lovely aluminum chassis that seems right in line with Audi's typical industrial design, and is packed with Nvidia's Tegra T40 processor.
Smart Display is meant to highlight the upcoming cleverness of Audi's newly announced in-car LTE connectivity (by way of continued partnership with AT&T). Users can, in theory, access the Google Play store while on the go, and then download and fiddle with Android-based apps until their very hearts are content. By "users" we mean "passengers" here, and so does Audi, though we're not exactly sure if there are measures in place to keep a driver from tableting while driving.
More next-gen Audi TT details revealed
Fri, 10 May 2013We still only have rumors about the third-generation Audi TT said to be scheduled for launch in late 2014, but based on a report in Car and Driver, we know a tiny bit more about it. The base engine will be the 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder with direct injection, but horsepower is said to be 220 horsepower - that would make for a nine-hp jump over the current output. The TTS would get an even larger power boost, going from 265 currently to 300 hp. The TT RS would stick with it's 2.5-liter five cylinder, with output increased from 360 to 380 hp. If Audi includes a nice dose of the go-light engineering involved in the TT Ultra Quattro, these horsepower numbers might be even more impressive.
As with the TT concept and first-generation production car, though, it sounds like the brand is concentrating on aesthetics. It's been widely reported that Audi wants to reclaim the juju conjured by the original TT, and while we still don't know what that means outside, CD reports that the interior gets simplified, "futuristic-feeling" styling thanks to instruments served up on a TFT screen. Remember, the first Audi TT had a cockpit that Car magazine dubbed simply, "The Cabin."
About a year after the coupe comes, the Audi TT Roadster will show up and should be joined by the next A5. The news for the next version of the subtly beautiful coupe is the arrival of a plug-in hybrid with torque vectoring via an electric motor for the rear axle. Beyond that is wilder speculation of an A9, which might be called Q9, and which was the four-door-coupe flavor of the month two years ago when it was possibly going to share a platform with the Lamborghini Estoque. According to the CD story, the thinking now is around "a combination of fastback and crossover proportions," a two-fer we've yet to see any carmaker pull off without making us go, "Oh. I see."
