Default Found an S4, opinions

I have found a 01 S4, (not 01.5) it is silver with NO sunroof, has the sport package, has winter package, 6 spd., 94k miles, 13,900(negotiable), only issue is that it doesnt boost, has no turbo whine!, and im going to test drive it tomorrow, im thinkin its a TBB or F-hose, anywho i dont give a rat's schinanigans about the sunroof so u guys think its a good deal if the problem is easily fixable> thanks--Chris

Default could be the tbb. It is a 10 minute fix. So sheck it out when you are looking at the car...

Seems like most people like the no moonroof option more.

Default if you don't hear turbos spool up then they are not spining = not good

bring a boost gauge to test drive!

Get a PPI if you don't know a lot about S4s.

Default everything is great except the turbos dont work.. LOL

the only thing attractive about that car is the fact that it has no sunroof. SKIP. youre going to get yourself in a deep money pit there
