2001 Allroad-Leak in Turbo Coolant Line
Green 2001 Audi Allroad - $1100 OBO
Unfortunately it has a leak in the coolant line that runs to one of the turbos. This line is almost impossible to get to without pulling the engine. There are write-ups on how to do it in about 4-5 hours without pulling the engine though. I don't have the time, space or tools to do it.
-Engine runs well. Just did the full re-seal process with with Beach House Imports in Costa Mesa, Ca to stop oil leaks. ($1200 last month)
-Arnott bags all around
-New front brakes
-I bought the car about 3.5 years ago from a Audi mechanic who bought it with a bad transmission. So, transmission was rebuilt about 4 years ago.
-178,000-ish miles.
-Interior in great condition. No rips in leather seats.
-New timing belt and water pump
-Good tires
-Bluetooth kit in glove box
-Body is straight. Only a couple of door dings and faded fender flares.
Car can go for 3-5 minute test drives, but will quickly start spilling coolant. Hate to let the car go, but I simply do not have the cash on hand to have the engine pulled to replace the coolant line.
Feel free to post questions about the car in this thread. I would like to keep the car intact for the next couple of weeks before I consider parting it out.
Thanks!
