***2005.5 Audi S4***black On Black ***not Running*** on 2040-cars
North Hollywood, California, United States
Attention mechanics, Audi lovers, dreamers, grease monkeys, artisans, miscreants!
Selling my BEAUTIFUL (NOT RUNNING) 2005.5 Audi S4. I would prefer NOT TO but have a couple things standing in my way: 1.) It needs work and I don't have the time to do it. 2.) Wife says no "project" cars for daddy. Initially, I'd purchased this car from Windy City Motorsports in Lombard, IL. Their ad said there might be a timing chain/tensioner issue. I brought it out West, had a go and my super-mechanic buddy found that a timing chain had given out and that I was looking at a bent valve I think. So we could either wrench on it OR swap if for a $4k to $5k engine. Which is fine by me, it's an awesome (originally almost $50k), car that I'd be HAPPY to work on and get back on the road. My wife, however, differs with me on this point. Also, I was JUST offered a new job that will have me away from home more often. Soooo.... Here it is: *Ext / Int Color Brilliant Black with Ebony Full Leather Interior *Luxury Features Air Conditioning Climate Control System Dual Zone Electronic Climate Control System Telescoping Steering Wheel Homelink System Steering Wheel Radio Controls Digital Information Center Cruise Control Moon roof Sunroof Tilt Steering Wheel Clock Tachometer Heated Seat Tinted Windows *Power Equipment Power Steering Power Windows Power Locks Power Mirrors Power Driver's Seat Power Passenger Seat Memory Seat Position *Safety Features Security System Key-less Entry Anti-Lock Brakes Traction Control System Driver's Air Bag Passenger Air Bag Side Air Bags Fog Lights Intermittent Wipers Dynamic Stability Control All-Wheel Drive Rear Defogger *Interior Wood Trim Leather Steering Wheel Leather Gear Shifter Audio / Video Bose System AM/FM CD Player CD Changer MP3 Navigation System Premium Sound Satellite Radio Separate Tweeters *Additional Features 12v Power Outlet Adaptive headlights Body Side Moldings Center Arm Rest Center Console Child Proof Door Locks Chrome Exhaust Tips Compass And Temperature Display Cup Holders Daytime Running Lights Front Heated Seats Head-Protection System Heated Mirrors HID Headlamps Luxury Seats Premium Alloy Wheels Rear Fog Lamps Remote Trunk Lid Front AND Rear RECARO Sport Seats Vanity Mirrors Xenon ***Copy and paste this link for original Windy City Motorsports ad and 70+ pictures: (EBAY won't allow a link here: you can check out the original ad at the "Windy City Motorsports" - in Lombard, IL- website...SORRY!) The car is beautiful. It got dusty in transit. I've washed, parked and covered it. I have some video of the car when it first arrived and some pix too. I'll try to figure out how to transfer the pix from my video camera to the computer but for now I have the pix you see here. ALSO There are a few scratches on those pretty black wheels (made by shipper). Not too bad and it's Plasti Dip which can be easily covered or peeled and re-applied, a SUPER easy fix. I'll work on getting some pix up. The front, right tire was flat, I replaced it with a new one. I THINK that's everything. A lovely 05.5 Audi S4 in need of some TLC from the right person. Email Christo anytime... Cheers! ***MAKE AN OFFER!*** The worst thing that can happen is I say no. ***MAKE AN OFFER!*** ***P.S.*** As a footnote to those who are unfamiliar. THEY ALL BREAK. No matter how well a person claims to have maintained their AUDI, they ALL have timing chain and timing belt issues. The best thing to look for when purchasing a used Audi (if you don't want to be working on it yourself), is to find someone who's had the timing belts OR chains changed/examined/maintained approximately every 80k miles. Tensioners, Ternsioner Guides...all need to be INTENTIONALLY managed in order for an Audi (engine), to have a long, happy life. Otherwise, you buy the car, it's running, then, BLAMO...it stops and you've just bought yourself an EXPENSIVE fixer (which was probably not your intension). This one here...an IN-expensive fixer ready for the right home. ***All offers considered. GOOD LUCK & HAPPY HUNTING! |

New Audi Sport Quattro Laserlight geeks out with mad lumens
Wed, 08 Jan 2014It's safe to say that, at least as far as automotive companies go, Audi's Sport Quattro Laserlight concept car is stealing the show here at CES in Las Vegas. The car's 700-horsepower hybrid powertrain and carbon-fiber bodywork mean that it would go like stink if it were ever allowed to turn a wheel, and the shapely coupe stance looks every inch the part of a modern-day super coupe, too. Better yet, the laser-powered headlamps that are the crowning glory of the concept car are actually slated for production at some point in the not-distant future.
We're talking about lasers here, folks. I don't know about you, but if you had told the 10-year-old, Real Genius-watching version of me that there'd one day be a car with lasers for headlights, well, I'd have wanted one of those things, pretty bad.
Anyway, Audi's lasers may not be able to ignite a giant pack of Jiffy Pop from space, but they are set to be the new standard for illumination on the road. The laser lights are nearly three times as bright and beam twice as far as current, top-notch LED high beams and were called "safer, sharper and more efficient" compared with existing technologies. That "safer" part works on two levels: the brighter beams offer far better visibility, naturally, but Audi also tells us that they won't dazzle oncoming drivers like traditional high beams will. That means you can drive with the maximum illumination at all times. Cool stuff, here at CES.
2015 Audi A3
Wed, 15 Oct 2014What kind of watch do you wear?
Especially today, when wearing a wristwatch is practically obviated by the near-ubiquitous use of cellphones, the timepiece found on one's arm makes a statement about how people perceive themselves.
A sport watch from Nike or Garmin would seem to indicate enthusiasm for athletic pursuit. Inexpensive fashion statements from Nixon or Nooka could signify a love of high design. Splashing out on a true luxury timepiece from Rolex, Bell & Ross or Breitling serves as a sort of human plumage display to connote, "I have thousands of dollars - at least - of disposable income."
Lexus gets top brand marks from Consumer Reports; Ford, Jeep hit hard
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its 2014 Car Brand Report Cards, with Lexus again reigning at the top and doing so with the same industry-topping score of 79 that it registered in last year's Report Cards. This year, the institute credited its lineup for being "usually quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient," noting it's the only brand on the list "to achieve an excellent average overall reliability score." The Car Brand Report Cars list is meant to rank the best all-around vehicles based on CR testing and reliability results tallied by subscribers it surveyed. Each brand included must have sufficient test and reliability data for at least three models, a standard which left out 11 marques including Fiat, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche.
This 2014 Brand Report Cars edition is the first of a new format in which sub-brands have been broken out from their parent brands, with Acura using this year to move up the leaderboard into second place with a score of 75 for its "reliable, well-finished and somewhat sporty models." The top three was rounded out by Audi, climbing from eighth to third by scoring a 74 for "well-crafted interiors, nice handling and good gas mileage." Audi scored highest in the road-test portion, its improved reliability aiding its rise. The top nine was completed by Subaru, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz.
Ford and Jeep weighed in at the other end of the rankings, Jeep taking the lowest overall score in the road tests and hampered by "a mix of spotty reliability." Ford was sunk by reliability issues with its MyFord Touch infotainment system which consumers found troublesome enough to negate its cars earning "solid test scores" for being "very nice to drive." Perhaps the rumored switch from Microsoft to Blackberry's QNX for the next generation SYNC will help them out. Cadillac's score also took a hit for infotainment reasons after it was the leading US brand last year, the CUE system in the XTS dragging Cadillac to the bottom of all General Motors brands.
