2002 Audi A6 Premium Sedan 4-door 3.ol Not Running on 2040-cars
Raymore, Missouri, United States
|
I have a 2002 Audi A6, that is not running, for sale. I haven't had the car diagnosed, but I think the problem is the fuel pump. Car turns over, and every now and then sounds like there is a little combustion happening, but not enough to start. I am giving no guarantee that the problem is the fuel pump, this is just a guess. The car was running fine, then all of the sudden it wouldn't start and has been sitting in my driveway ever since. The rest of the bad is as follows. The transmission has the notorious flashing PRNDS that is common to this CVT transmission. The car drove fine, but you couldn't use the sport shift feature, and had very little power in reverse. There are many shops that you can send the TCM to, and they will fix the board and send it back to you (approx. $240 including shipping on ebay), but you need to be able to pull the TCM, which means you need to pull the transmission housing (if you buy the service for the TCM rebuild, they will send you instructions on how to pull the TCM). Not difficult if you know your way around these cars, but I just never had the time. There is also a small tear in one of the CV boots. I have a brand new set of CV joints at my house, and if you are handy, this is a very easy replacement. The car has a few very minor hail dings (less then 10) and one small dent in the drivers side fender and the center console cupholder is broken (should be about $20 from Audi). The windshield was cracked when someone tried to replace the rearview mirror, and will need to be replaced ($275 if you have safelite come to you and replace it).
Now for the good. This car was fully loaded from the factory. It came with the Bose stereo system with the 6 disc in dash CD player, which sounds amazing still. It has the leather heated seats, which are in great condition. It has the power moonroof and the A/C blew ice cold when the car was running. The car has the Xenon HID Projector lights from the factory. I just replaced the front 2 tires, and the full size spare also has a good tire on it, but the rear tires should be replaced soon. All the brakes have been done within the last 2 years. This car was very fun to drive, and I hate to sell it, but I work 2 jobs and have a family, and just don't have the time to fix it. You will need to arrange for a tow, or come with a trailer. If you want to take the time to part it out, it should be very lucritive. The engine with similiar miles sells for over $2,000 and the Transmission can sell for over $1500. The headlights sell for around $500-$600 for the set. I see the leather seats sell for $600-$800 regularly, and each door can sell for at least $200. Stereo usually goes anywhere from $200-$400 and each of the little plastic trim pieces inside sell for $20-$300. |

Startup will make your Audi A4 self-driving for $10k [w/video]
Wed, 25 Jun 2014We are on the cusp of the next generation of semi-autonomous driving technology becoming affordable. Adaptive cruise control is already trickling down to the mass market, and the more sophisticated systems found on vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class are clearly coming, as well. If you're a little adventurous, live in California and drive an Audi, you might be able to upgrade to the next stage of driverless tech even sooner. A San Francisco start-up called Cruise Automation is launching an aftermarket autopilot system called the RP1 for $10,000, with deliveries starting in 2015.
The RP1 is designed for 2012 and newer Audi A4 and S4 models. Although, Cruise CEO Kyle Vogt told Autoblog in an email: "There's no reason we can't expand to other cars, and we will." The system includes a sensor pod on the roof containing cameras, radar and other sensors to scan the road ahead. It then sends data to a small computer mounted on the side of the trunk. The desired inputs are then made by actuators for the steering, brakes and throttle to control the car. A button in the cabin activates the autopilot and controls the desired speed. Not completely unlike Audi's own, developmental, semiautonomous system.
At this point, the RP1 is somewhere between an adaptive cruise control system and an autonomous vehicle. It can control all of the cars inputs and even bring it down to a complete stop and then accelerate again. However, it only works on select highways in California. "We use geofencing to limit the areas of operation to segments of highway in which we've collected enough data to ensure our customers' safety," said Vogt to Autoblog.
2014 Audi RS7 [w/video]
Thu, 23 Jan 2014The subject of what makes up a true "supercar" is a difficult one, fraught with personal connotations and the rare ability to bring close colleagues into heated confrontation with one another in the blink of an eye. I say this because, while the 2014 Audi RS7 most certainly does not make the supercar cut on a few levels to my way of thinking - not rare enough, expensive enough or wearing an appropriately evocative body - it is unquestionably an "everyday supercar" of remarkable ability. And, pertinently, it is one that proved willing to ply its trade in every version of winter that Michigan had to offer it.
I had winter four ways during my week-long loan with the RS7. A period of crisp temperatures and dry roads, presided over by light blue skies as wide as the horizon, soon gave way to spitting, freezing rain blanketed in slightly misleading warmer air. Then there was snow. Not the massive blanket we saw in the first week of the New Year, but more than enough to see my neighbors stocking up on Ice Melt and replacing their shovels for the season. Finally, temperatures dropped to the mid teens, cottony snow compressed into a hard pack and all residual moisture on the mostly cleared roads morphed into the very slickest of ice. Timeless curses were uttered by cranky commuters in smoking breaths. Pure Michigan.
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
