This car is for parts only, it does not start, the title is void, the owner has died (see below for details).
I purchased this vehicle from a friend about 2 years ago. He picked it up from a neighbor of his in July of 2010 and never titled the car while he attempted to fix it. Story is the car ran when it was parked and would not start again. New crank sensor was installed, no luck, several other things checked, couldn't find the issue. I found out about it and having a love of older Audi's, I always love a challenge, especially when you can pick one up cheap enough to usually turn around and fix with a bit of prudence. Well, I had a kid, have a demanding job and have narrowed down the issue but not able to solve it and the car needs to go. I installed a new cam position sensor and flywheel tooth sensor because the car is not getting spark or fuel pulses. I was getting spark but that went away during a diag procedure, go figure. I've also tried another ECM (comes with original and spare unit), with no luck. I can read and perform diags on the ecm's and all the available modules in the car but can't get it to fire the injectors. I do get voltage to the fuel system but it's not liking what it sees I guess. I'm thinking either the crank position that was installed was not put in right or is wrong/bad, or the cams are out of time enough. I've seen several cases where the cams slip on this motor. I don't have the tool to set the timing and I just can't get the time and don't want to put any more money into the car. Now comes the other major issue; the title. The title is NOT Transferable. I have the title, it is a duplicate, signed by the original owner, over to the previous owner (who never titled it) and handed it over to me. I never noticed or gave though to it that he used white out on the title.....I just looked at the title briefly and he just didn't know any better. I thought the title was just signed over (Maryland title, you only need to sign it over, no notary required) and I would just have to process it. I did some checking and followed up with my buddy and come to find out, the original owner died! We're unable to find anyone that has power of attorney or any other way to straighten this out easily through the Maryland Motor Vehicles Administration either. You can not process a title with any trace of white out on it and I even tried ever so carefully to remove the whiteout tape with no luck. This car is for parts only, I will turn over the title that I have with a bill of sale. It does have some paint issues, dent on the hood, scratches, flaking, etc....the interior is not the best or worst. The windows were left cracked in the end of a not so weather tight garage and resulted in the bottom front seats getting ruined. The upper seat backs of the front and all of the rear seats are in good shape, no tears there. Power features all work, memory too. Stereo is not working, has Bose system with 6 disc remote changer (might be related to the starting issue, seen weirder things on an Audi/VW!). Has the rear facing third row seat. Tires and wheels are in good shape, lots of tread, some cracking from sitting. I have all the shrouds, belts, belly pans, and pieces that were taken off while diagnosing the car as well. I can load it and tow it on my trailer for $0.50/mile within reason. I would just part out the car and probably double my money but I don't have the time. If it doesn't sell, it's going to the scrap yard, I'm not selling individual parts off it right now, so please don't ask. |

Audi A7 getting nip and tuck
Tue, 21 Jan 2014It's been less than two years since the Audi A7 first went on sale in the US, but European buyers have been able to enjoy the sleek and stylish hatchback for twice as long. As such, Audi is preparing to give its A7 a mild refresh with tweaked exterior styling, but we're also expecting some of the features found in the all-new 2015 Audi A8 to possibly trickle down to the A7.
From what we can tell in these spy shots, the A7 is getting a minor facelift that includes a restyled front fascia and new headlights, which will likely boast Audi's new Matrix LED system. At the rear of the car, similar changes have been made with a fascia that now gets integrated outlets and different taillights that have a Lamborghini-like display.
Not apparent in these images - but still a good bet for production - we'd expect to see the new A7 get some of Audi's updated engines or new driver assist technologies. No definite word as to when we'll be seeing the refreshed A7 in person, but considering how close to production ready as this car seems to be, our bet is on the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.

2015 Audi RS7 Dynamic Edition is a pretty car for a pretty penny
Thu, 17 Apr 2014Making its world debut at the New York Auto Show, and commanding a $40,250 premium over the base RS7, is Audi's new 2015 RS7 Dynamic Edition that arrives with an MSRP of $146,045 (including destination and delivery). The range-topping hatchback is designed to showcase Audi's exclusive program, which allows customers to choose choose from the automaker's long list of options and then take the customization one step further with bespoke paintwork, upholstery, bodywork and wheels.
The interior features Black Valcona leather seats with Crimson Red honeycomb stitching, and matching Crimson Red seat belts. The contrasting color is carried through to the stitching on the dashboard, center armrest, door panels, shift boot and center console. Carbon fiber inlays provide additional contrast. The exterior is offering in four colors (Ibis White, Suzuka Gray metallic, Daytona Gray pearl and Phantom Black pearl), with each arriving with performance-oriented DRC suspension (with three-stage adjustable dampers), 21-inch Gloss Black wheels, Tornado Red painted brake calipers and sport exhaust. A carbon fiber front splitter, rear diffuser and carbon fiber engine cover complete the package.
Like the standard RS7, the Dynamic Edition arrives with a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 rated at 560 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. With an eight-speed automatic transmission, running through Audi's Quattro permanent all-wheel drive and a sport differential, the four-passenger vehicle will crack the 60 mph acceleration benchmark in a reported 3.7 seconds - and, thanks to cylinder-on-demand technology, it avoids a gas-guzzler tax. The RS7 Dynamic Edition arrives at dealerships in early summer.
