***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! |

2014 Audi RS Q3 breaks out ahead of Geneva reveal
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Ahead of its big reveal next month at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, Audi has released a handful of images and plenty of details for the all-new RS Q3. As the first-ever crossover from the marque with RS branding, this will be the fourth RS model to go on sale this year after the RS5 Cabriolet, RS6 Avant and the RS7, and while UK and Germany sales have been confirmed, there is no word as to whether we can expect this high-performance CUV to be available in the North America.
Sharing its 2.5-liter turbocharged and direct-injected five-cylinder engine with models like the TT RS and the RS3 Sportback, the 2014 Audi RS Q3 should deliver on performance, as it pumps out 310 horsepower and 309 pound-feet of torque (peak torque starting at just 1,500 rpm and running up through 5,200 rpm). This potent engine is paired to Audi's seven-speed S tronic transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive. Despite its small stature, the RS Q3 still tips the scales at just over 3,800 pounds. Even so, performance figures are still impressive with a limited top of 155 miles per hour and a stated 0-62 mph time of 5.5 seconds. The RS Q3 also gets a sport suspension that has been lowered by 25 millimeters, launch control and weight-saving front rotors with a wave-cut and cross-drilled design gripped by massive eight-piston calipers.
Looking almost identical to what we saw last year in concept form in China, the 2014 RS Q3 looks just as sporty as its spec sheet suggests that it is. Up front, the fascia gets massive air intakes with silver vertical accents and, like other recent RS models, the Quattro emblem is written across the lower air intake. The silver accent motif also continues on the grille surround, mirror caps, roof rails and rear diffuser trim, and the oval exhaust outlet is also an identifying feature of Audi's RS cars.
2015 Audi R8 Competition ready to rock LA
Tue, 28 Oct 2014The heyday of the first-generation Audi R8 is winding down, and the Four Rings already has a bespoke factory to start building the next model soon. In the meantime, the German brand is sending its supercar off with a bang at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show in the form of this limited-edition 2015 R8 Competition - the most powerful production vehicle ever made by the company.
Audi is earmarking just 60 examples of the Competition for the US, and this is more than just a trim package to say farewell. Power for the supercar comes from the usual 5.2-liter V10 that's massaged to develop 570 horsepower, an extra 20 hp over the already quite potent V10 Plus, and the only available transmission is the seven-speed, dual clutch S Tronic gearbox. The tweaks let this limited R8 rocket to 60 miles per hour in 3.2 seconds and achieve a maximum velocity of 199 mph. To haul that speed to a stop, it also gets ceramic brake disks with red calipers.
Of course, having such a rare supercar means showing off a little. Audi takes inspiration from the R8 LMS Ultra racecar for the Competition and tries to bring some of its details to the street. The model wears matte carbon fiber pieces replacing the rear spoiler, mirror housings, side blades, front spoiler and rear diffuser. For an extra mean-looking touch, it also has high-gloss black paint covering the wheels and exhaust pipes.
Audi TT Offroad concept packs 408 hybrid horsepower, yet returns 123 mpg
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Audi took the wraps of its TT Offroad Concept at the Beijing Motor Show, after teasing us with sketches earlier this month. "The Audi TT offroad concept provides a glimpse of how we might imagine a new model in the future TT family," says Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Member of the Board of Management for Technical Development. "It combines the sporty genes of the TT with the strengths of a compact Audi SUV."
The latest in Audi's eTron show cars reminds us an awful lot of the the Audi Allroad Shooting Brake concept that debuted a few months ago at the Detroit Auto Show. In addition to very similar physical appearances, the two share the same plug-in hybrid propulsion systems (the "plug-in" part is a bit misleading, as the concept simply needs to be parked over an inductive pad to take advantage of Audi Wireless Charging technology).
Proving that hybrid power never has to be a compromise, the TT Offroad Concept packs a 292 horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood. The combustion engine is assisted by two electric motors (rated at 40 kW at the front and 85 kW at the rear) to provide a total system output of 408 horsepower and nearly 480 pound-feet of torque. With all-wheel drive, the concept hits 60 mph in 5.2 seconds and tops out at 155 mph - while returning a provisional fuel efficiency of 123 miles per gallon equivalent.
