Good Morning,

   I am currently in the process of buying a used 2000 A4 Quarttro for

around $12950.00 with roughly 64,000 miles. Was wondering if anyone had

any advice/oppions on this car and or mechanic to look at in the SF Bay

area.

Thanks,

Todd

2.8L or 1.8T

control arms
sludge on 1.8T
timing belt/water pump/tensioner (primarily 1.8T)

"timing belt/water pump/tensioner (primarily 1.8T)" applies to both engines.
Must be done before scheduled intervals, costs quite a bit and a failure to
either engine is catastrophic (read $$$$+)

5 speed or auto?

It better be very good for that price. Seems high. I got my 98.5 1.8 turbo,
quattro, manual with after market APR 1bar chip for $9,300 over a year ago with 62K.

Thank you both for the responses. It's a manual and the water pump has
already been replaced. It's also a 2.8L.

Oil leaks !!!! Cam adjuster seals especially.
