2001 Audi Allroad Quattro For Parts Or Repair on 2040-cars
Ypsilanti, Michigan, United States
|
Up for sale here is my 2001 Audi allroad that needs transmission work. This was my daily driver until the polar vortex hit Michigan a couple of weeks ago. I started the car at -18o, and started my drive into work (right after I filled the gas tank!) when the transmission started to slip. When I had the car towed, I could see a huge puddle of transmission fluid on the ground. I did some research and found that these transmissions (ZF 5HP19FLA), have an issue where the torque converter seizes to the bushing on the front pump. When this happens it wipes out the front seal and pumps out all of the fluid. At minimum, this transmission will need a new front pump, torque converter, seal, filter, and fluid. The dealer wanted several thousand dollars to replace the transmission, but I thought someone might just want to swap it out with a used unit. Specs:
Options: The base model of this car came with everything, but this vehicle also has the following factory options.
Exterior Condition: The overall condition of the car is very good. There are two dings in the driver’s door, but other than that, the car is very straight. The hood has typical stone chips in the paint as any car would at this mileage. There are minor scuffs on the front and back bumper covers along with the driver’s side rear fender flare. The paint is starting to bubble on both front doors down next to the aluminum trim (which means some rust under the paint). Interior Condition: The interior is very nice (I’m a non-smoker without kids), and is in almost new condition except for the driver’s floor mat and very slight wear on the driver’s seat. One of the rear cup holders wouldn’t open for me when I was inspecting the vehicle to sell. Also, the interior motion sensor override switch button cover is missing. The car is 100% complete as it should be. It has its retractable cargo cover, retractable dog net, spare tire, tool kit, jack kit, emergency triangle, 12V tire inflator, plastic bag for flat tire, first-aid kit, owner’s manual, both keys, etc. Tires:
Service:
Known issues:
I’m asking $2500 or best offer. Please e-mail me with any questions. The vehicle is currently in my garage and does start and run, but will need to be towed away.

World Car of the Year finalists announced
Fri, 07 Mar 2014To say the 2014 Geneva Motor Show was packed full of news is an understatement as big as the show's home at the Palexpo convention center. Despite everything that we were able to cover during this year's show, there's still more coming out of Switzerland, including the announcement of the finalists for the 2014 World Car of the Year Awards.
We reported on the original list of finalists over three weeks ago, and now, that initial list has been pared down to three finalists for each of the five awards. The finalists were announced at a press conference by frequent Autoblog contributor and co-chair of the awards, Matt Davis (above).
The finalists for the overall title of 2014 World Car of the Year are the Audi A3, the BMW 4 Series and the Mazda3. The World Luxury Car of the Year will be either the Bentley Flying Spur, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, while the Performance Car of the Year will be awarded to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the Ferrari 458 Speciale or the Porsche 911 GT3 (which, um, yeah...).
Car companies may need to start curbing model proliferation
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Looking at the current automotive landscape, especially from German makers, you quickly get the impression that less definitely isn't more. BMW alone offers its 3 Series platform in practically every segment possible, including the regular sedan and 4 Series Gran Coupe, which would seem to be direct competitors. Porsche might be the winner, though, with 20 different variants of the 911 listed for sale on its US website. However, some of this model madness might be reaching an end as companies begin cutting back spending or shifting money to other priorities.
According to Yahoo Finance, the offerings from the German automakers are up 25 percent over the past three years to over 200 models in Europe. The peak is expected to come around 2018 at 230 separate vehicles, according to consulting company PwC.
Amazingly, BMW, which is among the poster children for this model explosion, might be changing its tune. "I'm sure there will be points in the future where we look at certain cars and say, 'Maybe we need to think differently now,'" said head of sales Ian Robertson in an interview, according to Yahoo Finance. The statement certainly sounds shocking coming from a company rumored to have 23 front-wheel-drive vehicles all using a single platform on the way.
Audi's latest design is a table clock
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Audi and Porsche have more things in common than we can count. They're both German, of course, and have both enjoyed considerable winning streaks at Le Mans. Both have a tendency to put their (often turbocharged) engines at one extreme of the car or another, driving either the closest wheels or all four. Both tend to follow a brand-wide evolutionary design approach, focusing their energies instead on the engineering that goes under the bodywork. Both now find themselves under the same corporate umbrella, and now that they are, Audi has followed Porsche's lead in setting up its own design consultancy.
Like Porsche Design, Audi Design is now taking on projects for all manner of clients, from pianos to foosball tables. In this latest collaboration, Audi has designed a table clock for Munich-based watchmaker Erwin Sattler. The table-top clock houses a high-frequency mechanical movement in a foot-tall glass case that lets you see the intricate clockwork, held in place by two ruthenium clasps.
Unveiled in Switzerland at the Baselworld watch and jewelry show, the clock is now available to order. But while prices haven't been announced, don't expect it to come cheap: other Erwin Sattler table clocks typically sell for upwards of $10,000, and we wouldn't expect the new design to come at a discount.
