I picked up a 2002 A6 c5 avant. 7 years later lot of similarities. I hope the car becomes everything more than you expect. I will be looking for the next videos! Cabinet doors looking good too! 😁
Glad someone is putting stuff up on this car. Picked up a 96 A6 Sedan (Little less milage at 94k lol) a month ago and there is nothing out there on the C4's. Dealing with electrical stuff for mine, sat for a couple years. Keep the videos going, I'll end up needing them!
Wow only 94k, basically brand new and obd2! Nice find. I'm working on engine seals now, but it's a Pandora's box. Trying to ignore some things and hope she'll run again decently as it's not worth it to me to do a complete rebuild. Hopefully you get your electrical stuff sorted soon!
@@WildMountainGarage It has the port BUT it's not actually OBD2 compliant. If you let it sit, make sure the drain ports are clean. If they aren't, water seeps in...and since the ECU is on the passenger floor... hence my electrical woes. Those engines are pretty tough, so I have faith you'll get it going.

Thank you, you too! Hope yours has a lot less miles. Ha, thanks about the cabinets! First time.

Definitely change the rod bearings on these engines!
They wear out quite well.
Thanks for the tip! I'm in the middle of working on the seals at the moment. I'll look into it.
The worst work and handling job on an engine I,ve ever seen. Sorry mate
Keep watching, maybe you'll see worse!
