1998 Audi A4 Avant (Wagon) Quattro 2.8L V6 w/Low Miles (120K)

For sale is a silver Audi wagon with low miles and a clean title. Great commuter or family car. All-wheel drive means that it handles very well in the snow. No rust issues.

This vehicle comes equipped with the following options:

* Automatic Transmission
* All Wheel ABS and All-Wheel Drive (Quattro)
* Alloy Wheels
* Tinted Windows
* Leather Heated Seats
* 6-Disc Bose Premium Sound System
* Power windows and seats
* Roof Rack
* A/C is cold
* Non-smoker vehicle

(Recently replaced front tires, rotors, brake calipers, and brake pads.)

Vehicle is in good working order but does have the following issues: Sunroof frame damaged (motor works, but sunroof will not open); Tiptronic feature not functioning; needs new rear tires; LCD display for cabin temperature is difficult to read; passenger door molding missing; exhaust hanger noisy; may need new wheel bearings.

Overall, this has been a very reliable car for our family the past 4 years. It was purchased in 2009 on Ebay Motors and used to commute 3 miles to and from campus, as well as drive around the town of Boone, NC. We're selling because we're relocating to the UK and cannot take the car with us.  :(

A few people have asked about the car's service history and rather than post responses to each individual question, I thought I'd respond more generally.


The car had two prior owners in Maryland before I bought it on Ebay Motors in 2009 (at 99,425 miles). Records show that the car was regularly serviced at an authorized Audi Dealer (e.g., at 25K, 30K, and 40K miles), as well as had regular oil changes every 6 months. There is no evidence that the car ever suffered from any major mechanical or electrical problems, and it was never damaged in an accident. During the 5 years that I have owned the car, I have only had to repair the rear wheel bearings, front rotors, and windshield wiper motor, in addition to some minor things like replacing the tires, brake pads, battery, and a few vacuum hoses (I went ahead and replaced the front brake calipers simply because I was already replacing the rotors and brakes). Of course, I change the oil regularly and have had it looked at by a mechanic specializing in German automobiles.

The engine starts easily (even in cold, snowy weather), and the engine runs very smoothly. As far as I can tell, the car does not burn any oil or have any major leaks. The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears. There are no known electrical problems with the car--for example, the 'Check Engine' light is NOT on, and it does not return any error codes. The power windows and doors are operational (the seats are mechanical). The heated seats work well, as does the heater/defrost system. The Air Conditioner produces very cold air, reducing the internal temperature quickly. The stereo is really nice, and it produces crisp highs and deep bass when desired. The interior leather is in good shape, except for a small place in the driver's seat seam. In short, the car is in very good condition for its age.

Overall, this Audi has been the most reliable and lowest maintenance car that I have ever owned (from about a dozen used cars over the past 20 years). If the car doesn't sell on Ebay before we move to the UK next month, I probably will just keep it and drive it out to stay with family in California because it has been such a great vehicle.

Happy bidding and let me know if you have any other questions.

2014 Audi SQ5 ditches diesel, still packs a punch

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Over in Europe-land, the Audi SQ5 is a diesel-powered monster capable of sending a whopping 479 pound-feet of torque to its wheels. Naturally, this beast isn't coming to the States, but that doesn't mean we're missing out on the whole SQ5 experience altogether. At the Detroit Auto Show this week, Audi is debuting a new gasoline-powered version of the hot crossover, and while it's not quite the oil-burning dreamboat we've lusted after from afar, we certainly wouldn't kick it out of bed.
Instead of a diesel, we get a boosted version of Audi's supercharged 3.0-liter V6, good for 354 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque. Running through an eight-speed automatic transmission, the SQ5 will reportedly be able to fire off 0-60 times in the low-five-second range and will top out at an electronically limited 155 miles per hour. Suspension upgrades are on hand to improve road-going prowess, but also lower the Q5's stance a bit, too.
Because this is an S model, there are plenty of visual upgrades on hand, including a more aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and some pretty new colors including Estoril Blue and Panther Black. Interior upgrades like Alcantara trim and aluminum brightwork add to some sportiness from the cockpit view, as well.

Audi also calling in A8, S8 over sunroof issue

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

The S6 and S7 (apparently prone to potential fuel leaks) aren't the only Audis being recalled currently, as a separate recall notice has been issued for its flagship A8 luxury sedan and its high-performance counterpart, the S8.
The problem apparently revolves around the glass sunroof, which is fitted as standard and which is reportedly prone to break. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration determined that not only could the falling shards themselves end up injuring the vehicle's occupants, but could also distract the driver enough to cause a crash. As a result, Audi's American wing is bringing in all 2013 and 2014 model year A8s and S8s - 1,120 units in all - to have their glass sunroofs replaced free of charge.

Audi launches 2014 TDI models with hilarious spot

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Audi has unveiled a set of new television spots that seek to continue the company's proselytizing of diesel-fueled luxury cars to the American pubic. With TDI versions of the A6, A7, A8, Q5 and Q7 available for its 2014 model year range, this is a subject that's obviously near and dear to the hearts of Audi marketers.
The first commercial, The Station, makes a play on the fact that many car buyers in the US don't associate luxury cars (in this case an A8) with those green-handled pumps at the "gas" station. The second commercial, Range, is a lot more informative (albeit less fraught with screaming and slowmo), discussing just how easy it should be to find a diesel fueling station in your long-range TDI before you need to fill up.
Continue on below for a look at both new commercials, or to have Audi explain them to you in great detail, via its press release.
