1986 Audi 4000 S review from North America
"Old school pocket rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch, suspension, struts, bushings and ball joints etc. at 80,000.
Injectors, timing belt, water pump, fuel pump at 120,000.
Suspension, bushings and ball joints at 192,000.
Two exhausts and one cat.
General comments?
This car has always been a strong runner. I was told the MG on the engine number is one of the best/reliable engines Audi/VW made. This car is better than the quattro model.
I have a '87 4000cs Quattro in my parents garage, in pieces.
