Buying Salvage Yard AUDI Parts To Fix My CHEAP Bentley

  • I bought a 2006 Bentley Continental Flying Spur, the 4 door super luxury version of the Continental GT. It came out of Florida, it was only $12,000, and all it needed was keys or the immobilizer replaced with one from a Cayenne... it turns out the keys work perfectly but there are missing parts, including the relay that turns on the ECU. Luckily that relay is the fuel pump relay from many VWs and Audis so I ordered one, and it didn’t work at all. Today we’re getting that relay replaced at any cost, the car might start after that!!

    I will always love seeing that seat control panel in a Bentley. I'm currently sitting in a passenger seat out of a VW Phaeton that I made into an office chair, with almost the exact same panel (just with slightly different looking buttons).
    Those adjustments are extremely nice, aren't they? What a comfy seat. I'll never have another office chair without seat ventilation.

    I blew a 167 Relay on my Audi, exactly like that and it fit. However, a few of them I would notice online one of the pins was facing the wrong way...so I didn't buy it thinking it was for something else. I paid almost $80 for that relay at a TOPS parts store here in Orange County.
    Edit: LOL we found the 167 at the same time when you have the camera back in the back of the r8. I'm like "There it is JR" right as you said "There it is!".

    It sounds like Terminal 15 might be the switched ignition power line, ie, the 12V rail that comes up when the key is in the ignition and turned. A faulty relay could cause problems there. A short to ground on that line would likely blow a fuse...

    My 1989 BMW 525i 5MT (E34 chassis) had a system that would adjust the height of the seatbelt when you (power) adjusted the head restraint, with spring tension to keep the pivot from flopping around. Neat idea, but like most power-operated things, it failed (manual seats FTW). And when it would no longer adjust, the seatbelt would ride on the edge of the trim, simultaneously grinding a groove into the trim piece and wearing out the seatbelt 🫤

But then no one buys a great car now a days and keeps it. Why? Well it seems it's just not worth it unless it's more of an investment than a practical car. I remember buying used 10 year old luxury cars in the 70's and 80's and they were good value for money but not so today.
