    SOLD 2015 Audi S4 6MT Premium Plus - Daytona Gray Pearl

    This pains me but I knew the day would come at some point. I think it's time to move on from my beloved B8.5 S4. Here are the details:

    * 2015 S4 6MT Premium Plus
    * 99,3XX miles
    * Sport rear differential
    * Technology Package including navigation and 3G MMI infotainment system
    * Bang & Olufsen speaker system with factory subwoofer
    * Backup camera and blindspot warning lights
    * Carbon Atlas inlays
    * Original owner (purchased October 2014)
    * Oil changes done every 5k miles on average using 5w-40 full synthetic oil
    * Various modifications (see list below)
    * VIN: WAUDGAFL0FA045640
    * Clean PA title in hand

    Modifications currently installed:
    * EPL Stage 1 tune
    * Bilstein PSS10 coilovers
    * OEM Audi S5 wheels 19x9 et33 with Continental DWS06 tires 255/35-19
    * OEM Black Optic front grille
    * Eurocode front and rear sway bars with Moog solid end links
    * Eurocode Alu Kreuz chassis brace
    * Eurocode short shifter
    * Apikol solid rear differential mount
    * 034 solid transmission mount
    * ECS Street Shield front belly pan
    * Clear corner reflectors in headlights
    * Yellow LED fog light bulbs
    * OEM Carbon Fiber Supercharged badges
    * Xpel Ultimate PPF on front bumper, hood, front fenders and headlights. It has been on there for ~9.5 years so there are some small defects.

    Modifications I will be removing from the car before selling:
    * AWE Touring Resonated exhaust with diamond black tips


    Known issues:

    * I recently had the car in the shop to address an oil leak which was found to be from the valve cover gaskets. When they had the passenger side valve cover removed they identified some wear on the lobes of one of the cam shafts and associated rollers-rockers. Photos are included below. They said it was concerning and something to keep an eye on, but not an imminent failure. The wear on the cam lobes could be felt with a pick, but not by fingernail. I am taking their word for it as I don't really know, but in any case I am disclosing it up front here. The car is apparently running fine, achieving normal gas mileage, not misfiring (that I'm aware of).

    * There is a crack in the carbon inlay in the driver side door as well as the passenger side of the center console surround. This was due to thermal cycling when the car was parked outside.

    * There is a small defect in the rear bumper where someone bumped the car while it was parked.

    * There is a small door ding on the rear passenger side door

    * The top two mounting tabs of the front grille are broken. At some point I think my local shop broke them inadvertently when removing the front bumper assembly to access the front end of the engine for the thermostat and water pump replacement work mentioned below.


    Major services completed:
    * PCV valve replacement and intake valve carbon cleaning at ~50k miles
    * Thermostat and water pump replaced last year
    * Transmission fluid, rear differential fluid and brake fluid replaced last month along with replacement of all four brake hoses


    SOLD

    I know, I can't believe it. I thought I'd have this car for another 5 years.
    And thanks!!
