Summary
From Craigslist
Mechanics special $1000 OBO 2005 Audi A4 Quattro Avant 1. 8T 4cyl w/ 6speed manual transmission and AWD Timing belt snapped on the freeway When this happens on the freeway the camshafts stop turning but the momentum of the car forces the pistons to keep moving. This is an interference engine meaning the pistons collided with the open valves.
More details
Not sure how many are damaged cause we didn’t investigate too far. Might need cylinder head replaced or engine swap? Machine shop might be able to do the work.
This car is so well built and has been the most reliable car we’ve ever owned for the last 5. 5 years. Really wishing we had replaced the timing belt sooner.
We had no idea the timing belt breaking would put our beloved wagon in this terrible predicament. We had the timing belt kit and all that and went to do the work and then realized the vehicle wouldn’t go to TDC. Then we investigated further and found all this out.
If we had the time and money we would absolutely keep this car going but unfortunately we just don’t right now. Since we’ve owned it we have done regular oil changes w oil filter and drain plug and regular spark plugs, alternator, fuel pump, battery, coolant flush and new coolant reservoir. Also I believe coil packs and cv joint.
There’s probably more, I know a sensor was replaced too but can’t remember which one. Takes 92 premium gasoline. I hope someone will put the time and money into it and keep it on the road!
Some are trying to get rid of the older vehicles and we’d really love to see this vehicle kept and fixed instead of crunched. Need this gone soon, please get it running again! $1000 OBO Cash only
