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. :( On Jun-12-14 at 08:21:43 PDT, seller added the following information: *** UPDATED DESCRIPTION: We have replaced the wheel bearing and rear tires. On Jun-13-14 at 06:55:42 PDT, seller added the following information: 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 scores first CA autonomous car permit
Wed, 17 Sep 2014Audi apparently knows how to get to the front of a line when it comes to driverless vehicles. The German automaker had the honor of being the very first company to receive one of California's new autonomous vehicle driving permits. It was a perfect followup to it being among the earliest ones to get a similar permit in Nevada a few years ago.
Getting the California permit is a big deal for the automaker because the state is also home to Audi's Electronics Research Lab. Among its current projects, Audi is working on the human-machine interface to communicate whether the person or vehicle is actually controlling the driving. All of this hard work is building toward offering autonomous motoring in freeway conditions in the next five years, Audi claims.
Obviously, autonomous vehicles from companies like Google have been testing in California for a while, but the new permits are meant to safeguard public safety when testing the driverless cars in public. The new rules include things like always having a person able to take control and more stringent standards like registering each autonomous car and the eligible drivers with the state. Any models testing on public roads also have to carry at least $5 million in insurance in case of injury, death or property damage.
Audi mulling producing version of Quattro showcar, just not sure which one [w/poll]
Fri, 13 Sep 2013Head of design for Audi, Wolfgang Egger, has told Auto Express that a reborn Quattro could enter production, but bosses for the company haven't yet decided whether to base it on the Sport Quattro concept that just debuted at this week's Frankfurt Motor Show or the smaller Quattro concept that was revealed at the 2010 Paris Motor Show.
While both draw their inspiration from the original Ur-Quattro of the 1980s, they vary wildly in both size and choice of powertrain. The 2010 Quattro concept was based on Volkswagen's MQB platform, shared with such vehicles as the Golf and Audi A3. The Sport Quattro, meanwhile, was built atop the company's larger MLB platform that's used almost exclusively for Audi models, including the A5, which is also a coupe.
Under their hoods, the 2010 Quattro concept simply employs a version of the same 2.5-liter engine used in the TT RS, tuned to deliver 408 horsepower, while the Sport Quattro goes nuclear with a twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain that develops 700 hp and 590 pound-feet of torque. Both, of course, employ quattro all-wheel drive just like their forebearer.
Mattias Ekstr?m unleashes bonkers 600-hp Audi S1 Supercar on World RX
Sat, 26 Apr 2014Mattias Ekström doesn't need to prove anything. He's won the DTM title twice and before that the Swedish Touring Car Championship. But being a racing driver as he is, Ekström has been looking for new challenges. He's contested the Swedish Rally six times, the German Rally twice, he's driven in V8 Supercars and in NASCAR. He's even won the Race of Champions. Twice. Heck, we're surprised his long-time sponsor Red Bull hasn't let him try out one of its F1 cars. But this season it's on to a new challenge: the inaugural FIA World Rallycross Championship.
Ekström drove a Volkswagen Polo fielded by Marklund Motorsport in the Swedish rallycross round last season and came in second, but this year he's diving in head-first with his own team and his own car. His outfit EKS is hard at work preparing the new Audi S1 for competition in the World RX Championship, and will field two of them this season: one for Ekström and another for JWRC champion Pontus Tidemand.
Built to compete in the top category of the championship, the EKS Audi S1 Supercar will pack a 2.0-liter turbo four with 600 horsepower, all-wheel drive and a 0-60 time of 1.9 seconds. It's expected to make its debut late in May at the World RX of Great Britain where it will have to tangle with specially prepared versions of the Citroën DS3, Ford Fiesta ST and Peugeot 208 driven by the likes of Tanner Foust, Ken Block, Jacques Villeneuve and Petter Solberg. The sole North American round will be held in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, in early August, on the same circuit that once hosted Indy Lights, ALMS, Grand-Am, Can-Am and Trans-Am races.
