CV axles started to go bad
Door handle went bad
Dash lights didn't work
Power steering leaked...
This car was very reliable to me.
I have never had a problem in which the car kept me from driving it!
It ran good, decent quick, and handled like a dream.
I miss this car so much, like an idiot I traded it for a Plymouth Laser Turbo, stupid!!!
This car had an auto and it shifted so good, like I said I miss it.
1986, NO RUST AT ALL...
I will be purchasing a 1986 5000 Quattro turbo here soon...
For those of you that don't appreciate this car, or don't know about it... There aren't too many cars from 1986 with these options and run quite the way my 5000 did!
This was a nice car, I cannot believe you traded it for a laser??? A LASER??? I love my Quattro, it has the following on it:
2Bennett chip
2Bennett 3" turboback
2Bennet Medium intercooler
Boost controller at 13psi
K04 turbo
Bosch 26lb/hr injectors and Aeromotive Fuel pump
Ran a best time of 13.17@109mph with a 1.9 60ft... Very reliable... I once owned a 1993 Eagle Talon TSI AWD, no comparasion in fun factor or luxury... My car sounds like a lion ready to attack its prey, and my Talon sounded much less... I wouldn't take a billion dollars for my baby, and I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET ONE! Good luck with your choice!!!
A superb vehicle... one of the finest automobiles ever built--one of the finest...
My Audi 5000s runs great. Not a spot of rust, paid 200 and wouldn't trade it for anything like that... Thoe I wish mine was a quatro, the car is just as good ne where it goes. This car runs much better than my previous Audi 80. Audi lover and allways will be.
I have a 1986 Audi 5000s with less than 97,000 miles on the engine. a very solid rust free car. a very solid engine. i will be willing to trade for a good running pickup truck. contact me at nellieln@bellsouth.net if interested.
