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!

2013 Audi Allroad

Wed, 15 May 2013

Reincarnated With A Smaller And Less Passionate Soul
Mention the name "Allroad" to most automotive enthusiasts, and it's likely to conjure up images of the Audi A6 Allroad Quattro, first introduced in 1999. That car-like alternative to a sport utility vehicle was based on the German automaker's A6 Avant wagon. But unlike its luxurious road-going sibling, the Allroad was an on- and off-road variant fitted with an advanced height-adjustable air suspension for additional ground clearance, rugged tires on oversized wheels to improve off-pavement grip and unpainted flared fenders and bumpers to protect it from rugged use. That original A6 Allroad arrived with Audi's powerful twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6, more to offset its increased weight than to boost performance, and was eventually offered with a 4.2-liter V8 before it was discontinued in 2005.
Fast forward eight years, and Audi has introduced its replacement - now based on the smaller A4 Avant wagon.

2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet cleans up the Messe [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

If we're being honest, the outgoing Audi A3 Cabriolet never really flicked our Bic. That was just fine, of course, because Audi never brought it to North America. This new model, however, might have a different future.
And while Audi has yet to officially decide on this car's North American future, this Frankfurt Motor Show debut clearly has a better sense of proportion and aggression to it, and we're excited about its powertrain solutions, too. For the European market, Audi is promising TFSI gasoline engines in either 1.4- or 1.8-liters, along with a 2.0-liter TDI diesel, all being available in front- and all-wheel drive. Audi has also confirmed its first-ever S3 Quattro Cabriolet, which figures to combine a quick 18-second top drop and its hard-hatted sibling's even quicker 296-hp 2.0-liter turbo.
Even though Audi has been better about bringing its high-performance models to North America and has a new emphasis on growing its A3 business in our territories (including a US-minded sedan bodystyle), we would still be a bit surprised to see an S3 Cabriolet popping its entry-level top in dealers in a couple years' time. Having said that, we do think this A3 Cabriolet is almost a lock. Be sure to take a good, long look at our gallery, video and the official press release below.

Watch 14 hot rides take over concept car lawn at Pebble Beach

Sun, Aug 16 2015

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is an annual celebration of the beautiful, old cars that grace Monterey Car Week. But Monterey – and Pebble – features lots of newer metal, too, and that includes the concept lawn at Pebble Beach. Now, "concept lawn" isn't a totally accurate name anymore, and you'll see why in the list below. This year especially, plenty of production cars can be found in the area once reserved for the conceptual. Still, we're happy to see them. Here's what's featured this year: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider Audi R8 BAC Mono Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Buick Avenir Galpin-Fisker Rocket Speedster Hyundai HCD-16 Vision G Coupe Icona Volcano Infiniti Q60 Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4 Maserati Ghibli McLaren 570S Rolls-Royce Wraith By our count, that's seven concepts out of fourteen cars. But it still makes for one hot group of metal. Check 'em out in the gallery above.
