A4 1.9TDI 130bhp -> MY first TDI

[marcoleite]

Hi guys,

I am a newby arround here, and a new TDI lover

I am not English native, so you wil probably find typos in this post and other posts of mine. Because of this, I also dont know the name of loads of parts (I would probably know it inmy native language, but not in English. This doesn't mean i am an expert, I am a real newby )

Got my first baby and very excited to get my hands dirty

Here there are a few pics of it:

Interior

Front:

Back:

Quite dirty, I know. The car belonged to a woman with 2 kids, so the back of it suffered a bit. Nothing that a good shower and a bit a care won't fix.


Driver Panel:

(It's "driver panel" the real name for this in english?)


Millage:

This is the millage of the car when I first filled in the tank, before reseting the counter. I am currently on the process of cheking the avarage millage peer tank (hopefully Km when Imanage to change the units).

When I bought it, I reseted the millage counter, before moving it, so I bought it with 158777 - 272 => 1585005miles +or-.


Tell me what you think.


Glad to join you guys

Nice looking Audi. Be nice to have one!!

Thanks 02NBTDI.

There a few little things to do on it to make it perfect, but I love it already

cool car! do you have plans on doing mods on it?

 

[marcoleite]

Thanks TDI. Not too many, at least for now. The higher priority things are fixing the little problems it has...

For now:
- Add Wind reflectors;
- Check the break pads, think needs replacement.
- Check thermostat - car not heating up properly.

Next 2/3 months:
- 4 new tyres needed.
- Tint windows
- check Radio - would like something a bit better then the original one;

Future:
- Full respray to remove all the little scratches.

Very nice vehicle. I am in the process of negotiating to purchase the avant version A4 Tdi. Good luck !!

 

[j_martell]

That is sharp....

 

[marcoleite]

Thanks @hughc. The Avant would be even nicer, fancy

Thanks @j_martell. Will be even sharper when I get the time and the money to do the things on the list

Someone knows what is it, what does it mean?
