Modified A4 avant

[DeltaAlpha9]

I have never understood why the 1.8t's didn't come with real leather like the 2.8's. It seems like a huge number of the pleather seats have tears in the drivers seat. Weird choices by Audi aside, I love avants and can't wait to see this progress.

Reminds me of my silver B5 sedan project! I really need to clean my climate control buttons too, when it gets cold they get stuck so I had to WD40 them as a bandaid until i get the chance to actually take stuff apart haha. Can't wait to see where you take this!

Excited to see this

So y'all know I like to paint stuff.

The rear bumper was pretty scuffed up from normal wear and tear I'm guessing. So I fixed that.

After





More exciting things soon. Coils are on the way!

No real update, getting married in a month so my funds are a bit tight. Just been fixing small things here and there.


To stay on the cosmis wheel trend with my Audi wagons. A good friend is the head of cosmis usa, recently nudged the idea of carrying 5x112 wheels. So I will have the first set in 8-10 weeks.



More soon hopefully!

Those look great...Id definitely be interested in getting a set for my B6 Ultrasport if Cosmis decide's to stock them!

Got an eBay rs4 grill cause the old stock one was tired and faded.



Spent about 6 hours detailing, got a lot of the surface scratches out. Some paintless dent removal is in my very near future.





Almost all of my climate buttons had reached critical sticky phase, so I did minor surgery to clean out the 17 years of dust and oil.

honestly no clue on the motor, anyway for me to tell?

I used to have a b5, here's to find your engine code




Also great find!

AJL and AEB difference is in kW's. AJL have 132 kW but AEB 110 kW. Small differences in ECU & turbo pressure. That's all.

In for another dwob build holler when you sell this one

Haha i will, after driving it for two days, I suspect ill be keeping this around for a while. everything works on it, runs amazing and already more fun to drive than the allroad.

Looks like a solid base for a start. I was looking for a b5 wagon but couldnt find any locally. Cant wait to see what you do to it.

Yeah man, im super excited. didnt know how hard this car was to come by until i posted on some facebook groups. it will be unmolested and all mods removable *cause thats what i always do right?*

It happens when U have 2.5'' or 3'' straight exhaust with custom downpipe.



Do you have AEB or AJL engine? What coilovers U will use?

Mine is here:

Same, they are impossible to find in manual not beat to complete crap. I have been looking for a stock B5 Avant with under 200K and decent maintenance records its damn near impossible. I don't feel like settling for its step brother the Passat Wagon b5.5 1.8T 4 motion that seems to be even hard to find as that model was tailored towards soccer moms.

I ended up just going with a b6 a4 1.8t which I am very happy with. I had a few wagons I was considering but finding a decent one of those is just as hard as well.
