ICEMAN1647545504 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Im looking to pick this car up and use it as a in town driver like a daily to work and back if I can pick it up for the right price that I want to pay for it. What do I need to look for on this car??? Is it worth buying if the price is right??? Does anyone know the car??? Like I said I'm not looking to pay what he is asking for it and he is asking $6K for it... Let me know what you think... Thank you... It is a daily drive car winter/summer. It runs strong and smooth. Only the modification parts itself cost over $6500, not including labor. Car makes about 300awhp / 255awtq. Basic Information; 1998.5 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro 5 Speed (160k miles) Blue exterior / Interior, and Tan Leather Seats. Radio Cassette CD Changer, AC, Alarm, Remote Locks Stock parts have been replaced/changed since I’ve own the car •Full timing belt job done at 142k •Rear bearings changed •Front both axles changed •MAF changed •Crank Sensor Changed •Crankcase Breather Hose/Tube replaced •Oil and Spark Plugs change every 3000 miles (Mobil or Royal Purple / NGK BKR7E) •Checked Piston pressures for leaks and non found.

One T will fix the problem, less than $5 part. •I think rear driver side ABS sensor has problem. ABS works without any problem accept sometimes make noise just right before full stop. Not necessary to change it since it does not affect the ABS system, it just makes noise sometimes. •Cruise does not work. It worked couple of times but I have no hope that it will work again. •Interior and engine bay is not in perfect condition but decent. •Wheels are not in perfect conditions. They have small curb damages and water marks. •CD Changer does not play CDs sometimes, Radio and Cassette work just fine. •Small dents on the body of the car. All the issues I stated above are not critical, just I did not see any point to spend money on it to fix. That’s all I can remember about the car. Please fell free to contact me for any questions. Price is negotiable please make reasonable offers tho!!! http://images.craigslist.org/3n43ke3oa1f412613891oceacf0fa168b1dc2.jpg http://images.craigslist.org/3ne3pe3lc1fd1431ga91offf803e345521c57.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't ANYONE correct an oil warning light with a $5 part IMMEDIATELY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 1.8T with an oil light on = RUN AWAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
