1986 Audi 4000 CS Quattro review from North America
"This car is a tank in sedans clothing.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car so far. Tuned it up and fixed some minute problems. It is a Twelve Year Old Car! Small problem areas to be fixed in the future. Control arm bushings, engine tappet disks (top of lifters, worn) and possibly a new windshield...ooops.
General comments?
This car runs very strong for as old as it is and as hard as it is beaten. Daily bad weather driver. Other car is a 1996 Impala SS, the Audi is by far more fun to drive. Sideways around corners, loves gravel, snow and mud. It has been on two wheels a couple of times, and just keeps coming back for more. Paid $75 for it, running. It was behind a shop with the dash apart, electrical problems. I would buy another car from Audi in a heartbeat (yes, that is a pun on Chevy)
