2002 Audi A4 Avant Quattro 1.8L Turbo 5 speed manual Denim Blue pearl exterior Gray Leather interior optional equipment includes Xenon headlights cold weather package (heated front and rear seats, headlight washers) front and rear side impact airbags 17" premium wheels 5,000 miles on new Bridgestone Potenza G019 Grid nitrogen filled tires 5,000 on new brake pads and cross-drilled and vented rotors Oil change and oil flush 7,000 miles Timing belt and water pump service done at 92,000 miles Transmission fluid changed 5,000 miles ago Aftermarket cross bars for roof rack (removable) PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE BIDDING Bought this car about 2 years ago, it has been an excellent car for us. We have used it on many trips, provides lots of storage and we used the roof rack to hold our Thule box. All of the maintenance has been done by a reputable shop in our area that specializes in european performance vehicles. Exterior and interior are in very good condition with the exception of a small scrape on the rear bumper, and the glove box has fallen off. Now the bad part: About 2 weeks ago I did an oil change on the car myself, we were preparing to take a long trip. I drained the oil early in the morning, and forgot that I had already added oil to the car. Later when my wife needed to take the car to leave, I again added an EXTRA 4.5 quarts of oil to the car. She made it about 4 miles down the road before the oil light came on and turned around and came home with the car smoking from the tailpipes. I drained the extra oil, changed the filter again, and added the correct amount of oil. The engine is making a rattling noise and it still smokes A LOT under acceleration. I don't know if the engine needs to be replaced or if it can be fixed. We are just going to buy a new car. So I am selling this car assuming that the engine needs to be replaced. I would also recommend trailering the car home, I would hate to have the engine seize before it can be looked at. Please do not send me and email asking "what is wrong with the car". I do not know, and I haven't brought it to a shop, I just want it out of the driveway. There is no reserve and it is priced very low, I know it is worth much more than the starting price just in parts. Good luck bidding, please ask any questions before bidding.On Apr-23-10 at 11:19:20 PDT, seller added the following information: Vehicle Transportation Tools powered by Shipping Price Estimator Delivery Zipcode: uShip is the first and largest auction- style marketplace for shipping and transportation services.
