2005 Audi A4 Quatro Luxury Sedan 4-door 1.8l Turbo All Wheel Drive on 2040-cars

For Sale 2005 Audi A4 Quatro 1.8 lt Turbocharged Engine Automatic Transmission Full Time All Wheel Drive Power Windows Power Locks Power Mirrors Power Sunroof Power Driver's Seat Leather Seating and Trim Driver's Airbag Passenger Airbag Side Impact Airbags Side Curtain Airbags 4 Wheel Anti-lock Brakes 4 Wheel Disk Brakes 17" Five Star Sport Alloy Wheels The car runs and drives. The previous owner had rear ended someone causing the damage that can be seen to the front end of the vehicle. I purchased the car with the intentions of repairing it for my wife. Now we are having to deal with courts in a custody battle with her ex to assure the safety and well being of our daughter so, the car must go. As I said, the car runs and drives well. The motor mounts could use replacing and I was going to go ahead and do all the maintenance, such as new belts and fluids, to assure its all done and up to standard as I have no idea the last time anything was performed. I would recommend the same to the new owner. The brakes have about half their life remaining. Three of the four tires need to be replaced. The spare is a full sized, matching wheel spare but, the tire on it was obviously a match for the other three and didn't survive. I would assume the only time worth keeping was the spare to begin with. So, a new set of tires is in order. The interior is clean and everything works properly but there are some things on the dash that need to be replaced. For example, the ash tray and little storage tray are broken and need to be replaced. The glove box hinges are broken. Audi has a repair kit for this issue and it is a known problem. The seat bottoms on the front seat have cracks and tears. I was going to put on seat covers or have them repaired. I hadn't decided yet. Beyond that, its pretty nice inside. The body is fairly straight. The driver's side rear door does have a dent, which can be seen in the pictures, that I am pretty sure can be popped out if you pull the door panel and push on it from the inside. There isn't a crease so it should straighten out fairly well. Some heat and some massaging and it should look pretty smooth. The hood is obviously damaged. I was going to hammer it as straight as possible, smooth it over with filler and sanding, and them prime it only as needed to protect it and then wrap it in carbon fiber wrap. I have already purchased the wrap. The grills, all four, need to be replaced. There are some really nice after-market grills that I was going to purchase that would look really sharp. The mounting tabs for the headlights were cracked so the headlight housings need to be replaced. I was going to take this opportunity to upgrade to HID lighting. If you prefer to go cheaper you can just replace the housings and stay with the projectors which are plenty bright. The upper radiator support does need to be replaced as well as the fan / shroud assembly. The a/c condenser was punctured in the accident and needs to be replaced and the system will need to be recharged. This is all that I can think of at the moment. I am trying to be as up front and forward as possible. I figured this is a great opportunity to obtain a really nice car at a fraction of the price. Plus, you get to put your personal touches on it as you build it. Every vehicle we purchase, this is how I go about it and we come out ahead every time. We buy it needing repairs, such as this Audi A4, repair it, have the title converted back to a blue title, drive it for a few years, and then sell it for a profit. Even when we have had a car totaled in a hail storm, which has happened twice now, we have received more than we paid for it or had it all together. If you have any questions or would like to see any additional pictures please let me know. |

2015 Audi TT's digital gauge cluster to spread throughout lineup
Tue, 18 Mar 2014File this one under: "makes sense to us." According to Car and Driver, the slick new gauge cluster found in the 2015 Audi TT will expand to other models in the automaker's lineup. In the near term, expect the tech to make its way into the next R8 supercar (with a special performance display for that model), as well as the upcoming, all-new versions of the A4 sedan and Q7 crossover.
Audi's new customizable gauges first debuted at this year's CES - it uses a 12.3-inch TFT display, and, while similar to the systems found in the Cadillac CTS, XTS and Mercedes-Benz S-Class, this system has the ability to show full-screen, three-dimensional maps. We had a chance to check out the new display in-person at CES, and found it to be impressive, though we're curious to see how distracting it is while driving.
Car and Driver says the system is still undergoing small tweaks before Audi officially launches it in the TT later this year. From there, the display will be standard in the R8, but Audi is unsure about whether or not to offer it as a standalone option in the higher-volume A4 and Q7 models.
Shuffle at Lamborghini sends CEO to Quattro GmbH
Tue, Feb 23 2016A management shakeup in Volkswagen Group's high-performance divisions will make Stephan Winkelmann (above) the new chief executive of Audi's Quattro GmbH on March 15. On the same day, former Scuderia Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali will replace Winkelmann as Lambo's boss. These changes are necessary because current Quattro chief Heinz Hollerweger is retiring. Rumors of these exact shifts cropped up in Italian media in December. Winkelmann began leading Lamborghini in 2005, and he has been at the helm for massive growth at the company. In 2015, the Italian supercar maker delivered a record 3,245 vehicles, and it had just set its previous best of 2,530 units in 2014. His new role at Quattro GmbH puts Winkelmann in charge of Audi's equivalent to M at BMW or AMG at Mercedes-Benz. The division is responsible for the Four Rings' R and RS production models, the Audi Sport customer racing program, and Audi Exclusive customization service. "In the future, the Audi Sport brand is to be positioned more clearly," the company's announcement said, which hints at one of Winkelmann's duties. Domenicali has been closely associated with Lamborghini rival Ferrari during his career and had years of experience within the automaker's racing team. He started in financing at the Prancing Horse in 1991 and moved to business planning for the Scuderia Ferrari F1 squad in 1993. He held many positions there and eventually ascended to the top as team principal in 2008. Domenicali resigned from leadership in 2014 because of the team's poor performance, but Audi quickly snapped him up as its as Vice President New Business. He now gets the reins of one of Italy's premiere supercar makers.

Winkelmann was President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. since January 1, 2005. Heinz Hollerweger (62), the current Head of quattro GmbH, is to retire after almost 40 years of successful work for Audi. "With his experience from more than eleven years in charge of Lamborghini, Stephan Winkelmann will be a key contributor to the further growth of quattro GmbH," says Rupert Stadler, Chairman of the Board of Management of AUDI AG.
Audi plans RS3 for US
Tue, Apr 7 2015Rejoice, performance-car fans. The Audi RS3 (pictured above) is probably coming across the Atlantic. If that happens, the US-market RS3 will likely be a sedan, not the five-door body style offered in Europe. Hot hatch fans might shed a tear at this news, but we'll the RS3 any way we can get it. Audi of America CEO Scott Keogh feels the same way. "We really, really want the RS3," he said to Automotive News. "I'm very confident we'll see that car in the market. That's as far as I'm going to go. In Europe, the RS3 Sportback packs a 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder with 362 horsepower and 343 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. That grunt get to the ground via a torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system that can route up to 100 percent of the power to the rear wheels when necessary. The sprint to 62 miles per hour goes by in just 4.3 seconds. Of course, a tiny, hardcore sedan isn't on every buyer's shopping list. For those who want a little more room with their luxury, the Q8 is also on the way. "That is absolutely a car that we will see in the United States," Keogh said to Automotive News. The big crossover shares its platform with the next Q7, but will have sleeker bodywork similar to vehicles like the BMW X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe. The Q8 is slated to launch in 2017 with US sales following the European debut. Recent rumors suggest that a fully electric E-Tron version could be part of the lineup as well. Audi's American arm isn't as crossover crazy as some other automakers, however. According to Keogh, the tiny Q1 CUV might not come to the US because it's not the right fit for the market.
