My 1.8T is an okay car, but I've always liked the 2.8 we drove before we bought it better. This '98 popped up, and appears to be most deffinitely in my price range, so I just thought I'd ask.

The radiator was another thing I wanted to ask about. How's the repair on that??

 

seems expensive for a soon to be 10 yo automatic....

good paint, like the color, will last another 100k easily, make sure they have all of da maintenance records.....

why not just chip whatchu got?

gl!

 

Parents don't want me chipping my car. Plus, I don't really want to do it that much, either.

I'm looking at this car from a reliability standpoint, not a performance standpoint.

 

my 99 a4 .The abs module can be redone on ebay for like 160 dollars ive just bought it and im waiting for the shipping label to send it in .also my cats are out need to replace 2 of them 1 more thing dont fly ove train tracks your oil pan will fracture bad but german auto parts had one for 99$ my car has 149k on it only thing done is timing belt and water pump 700$ from auto mechanic .250 $ brakes DIY. Cats 300 For both at muffler shop,other minor items resevor for radiator. temp sending unit not bad for an old car that feels better than most new cars I love AUDI just bought a 03 a4 1.8 this time both are wife cars and to think i almost bought a BMW

 

The radiator is a simple DIY, the only thing is it costs $250 at the stealership.

 

seems kinda expensive.

 

I'm surewe'll at least negotiate on it a little bit if we look at it.

Thanks for the tips, guys. Probably drive up and see it this weekend.

 

Too much money for that Audi dont pay that much you can get a good Audi for 6.5 or 7 k max check blue book on the car and talk the guy down there will alwys be more cars if he doesnt want to deal . plus is that the 12 v or 30 v Audi

 

i bet they payed like 3G's for that car i would pay like 5500 or 6000 Good Luck!

 

I've only drove mine ten miles so far since i got it,seems to me its the best car i have ever owned!! still wana get the 1.8t and have both of em tho-2.8 5 spd & a 1.8t tiptronic....
