As most of you know I’ve been looking for a TDI diesel for some time. Just recently I found a slew of cheap low mile diesels. With a new fresh income of capital, I decent to close in on the kill and just finish what I started… But then! I came across a sweet deal on a car that I’ve always dreamed of owning. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0376.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0376.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0373.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0373.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0372.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0372.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0377.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v607/alexsobo/IMG_0377.jpg) \*Sorry for shitty photos, It was a confined area and the iphone blows donkey dick. I grew up on NY speed interested in Audi’s. They were the first turbo car’s I ever touched in addition to the first manual car I’ve owned. Every day I owned a 1.8t I once thought about owning an S4, however I could never afford one. This particular model is a 2000, silver, with black leather interior. Heated seats, Bose stereo, CD changer, and a car phone(LOL). 130,000 miles on the car. **I payed $4200**! The body is like a 9/10, and the interior is a 10/10. Everything is mint on the car and it’s well maintained and documented. New timing belt, water pump, and thermostat. All new suspension and a new exhaust. The car is APR stage 1 tuned. The bad however… One turbo is blown. So It’s smokey. haha -Sobo I’m happy with it 🙂 ---

Nice ride. What’s involved in getting it back to top running condition? ---

Pulling the motor, replacing a k03 turbo. It’s an involved job, however used k03 turbo’s go for about $300 for 2. ---

You were bitching about putting a lot of mileage on car and wanted something reliable… So you got an S4? :lol: Have fun paying to get this fixed… ---

> [@LZ](#): > > You were bitching about putting a lot of mileage on car and wanted something reliable… > > So you got an S4? :lol: > > Have fun paying to get this fixed… First off, Never mentioned anything about reliability. Just gas mileage. Second off, I can drive this car in winter. Third off: **I STILL HAVE MY LS1.** I can do my own work on this car too, It’s not anything overly difficult. So suck it. ---

Uh huh Everyones a mechanic till it comes to euro cars :lol: Regardless I like the car :tup: I always wanted an S4… I just have seen so many people try to buy entry level Audis, BMWs and such…that are high mileage and beat up…then cry when every part for it is $$$$$. ---

Ok so your saying I need to be a euro mechanic to pull the front clip, undo the motor mounts, and the bolts to the transmission, then pull the motor. Unbolt the old turbo and put a new one on? Whats so different about this from any other motor pull? ---

If you’re pulling, you really should at least put K04s in there. ---

Welcome to the party. There’s a kid on DitB who has a parts car with good K03s he’d probably let you have for almost nothing once he pulls his motor. Or you could jump right to K04s 😉 ---

very nice, I personally prefer them in blue or s4 yellow but the silver is indeed classy, not that I question your judgment but it is indeed an s4 not that s-series badging on an a4 business?(post a close-up of the badges so I can drool over them) ---
