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.

Audi replaces Mercedes as official vehicle supplier to the IOC

Sat, 12 Jan 2013

The automotive sponsor of the International Olympic Committee for the past 22 years has been Daimler-Benz. No more, as Audi has just signed a four-year deal to be the official auto supplier to the folks who keep the torch alight and on the move. Audi will supply vehicles for the IOC's headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland and the organization's international events.
In case you're remembering all the stories about BMW and the London Olympics last summer and wondering where Mercedes-Benz was in all of that, the answer lies in the numerous mouths at the Olympic trough. The IOC is the organization and oversight body of the Olympics - much like the way the FIA oversees world motorsport. BMW, though, sponsored the London Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games, so during the games IOC reps rode in Benzes, LOCOG and its guest dignitaries rode in BMWs.
The Volkswagen Group has other ties with the Olympics as well: The Group will be the official vehicle partner for the winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia in 2014, and Audi currently partners the national Olympic federations of Germany, Finland, Russia and Switzerland. The press release below announcing the partnership has all the official details.

Finalists for 2014 Green Car of the Year announced

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

The list of finalists for the 2014 Green Car of the Year has been announced, and in a genuinely bizarre twist, there's only one hybrid and no electric vehicles among the five contestants, despite the arrival of cars like the BMW i3 and Tesla Model S. Taking the place of the EVs are a pair of diesels, repping a technology that last won a Green Car of the Year award in 2009, when the Audi A3 TDI took the title. No diesel was in the running for last year's award.
Naturally, both of the diesel finalists are fielded by the Germans - with BMW's 328d and Audi's A6 TDI getting the nod. In the case of the 3 Series, BMW installed a 2.0-liter, turbodiesel, capable of delivering 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while returning 45 miles per gallon on the highway. Audi and its larger, 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel produce quite a bit more grunt, with 240 hp and 428 lb-ft of grunt, but net a very impressive 38 mpg on the highway in the A6.
Finalists for this year's awards include two diesels, three gas-powered cars and a plug-in hybrid.

Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial

Wed, 28 May 2014

How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
