The fuel cap sits on top of the petrol flap its got knock outs ,try it out
I've got a 2004 Silver 1.8 T Bex B6 A4 Avant S-Line Quattro with Alcan tera and leather seats, sunroof, 6 speed and I've fitted SQ5 20" wheels..
One cool thing I didn't Know was if you hold the unlock button on key fob while car is locked it opens all the windows and sunroof at once .. really cool on a hot day plus you hold the lock key button and it winds all windows up plus closes the sunroof .. love my Audi :)
I watched this video before buying, now i got mine Avant 1.8t 140kW BEX quattro with 6speed and i love it
A happy customer 😊 😉 glad you like it went to a track with mine today and it was so so so so good
I have the sedan and i love the hell out of it but the way the looks of the sedan compared to the avant makes the sedan look like a sausage
Yeah I 100% agree i really believe they made the sedans sad looking from the rear but all round still a great car love my car beat thing I own actually thats a lie 😂😂😂
I love my avant
Gas cap has notches for sitting on gas door as stated by others, as for the hand brake, I agree, it is dumb. What’s funny is I’ve owned an 8P, B6 and B7 all with this style and people always ask when I drive other cars like my Volvo or BMW why I grab the front of the P-brake with my palm instead of using it normally hahaha.
There’s two little notches in the gas cap itself that hooks onto the fuel door. Took me awhile to find on mine
They are a good looking car, they handle awesomely and I miss mine sooo much! 😢 Should never of sold my A4 B6 1.9 tdi Quattro Avant!!!
Hey grab one while there still cheaper price at the moment 😉 always an option
My shifter is much less Wigley I have 6 speed S4. Nice car! Wish I had avant!.
Jay has been after a 6 speed for a while lol
Just bought a 2wd 1.9tdi sport avant . Love the looks, wanted the most reliable and best mpg car of the lot.
Good choice. Best ones are 1.9tdi, 1.8t and vr6. I'm looking for one but I gotta have Quattro and 6 speed manual
Gonna trade my BMW E46 325xi 02, for an Audi A4 B6 1.8t quattro 04. Is it worth it?
Neat car and great looking. Looking at a semi-auto B6 at the mo, could be a winner if the hex oil drive isn't worn to bejasus. We'll see..
how reliable are these? what should you look out for in second hand one and how many miles/km are their expiry ? cheers
Good normal stuff really just regularly servicing the car they burn oil so it's important to do this or the engine will suffer what they call black death but should be good if you keep on top of it, look put for things like door looms they brake in the doors, suspension knock will always be the inner tie rod end if you can't find it in the bushes, rear lights stop working every now and then due to build of crop on the bulb holder there's loads of little niggly bits but nothing that's crazy that deems them a bad car overall they drive and feel really nice all around if you get one you will love it
@@drivewaydynamics7653 thanks for the reply mate.
did a bit more research and hear the multitronic gearboxes are to be avoided. unfortunately the only ones I seen here (australia) are FWD and I read that only the quattros come with tiptronic gearbox's. Haven't seen a manual one yet.
I had an audi a4 v6 for awhile who's climate control failed, I had to take the faceplate off and re-solder the connecting pins and it worked again. It also had a leaking heater core and passenger windows wouldn't wind down lol. But aside from that it was sooo nice to drive. Extremely stable and smooth.
1.8t is the best sounding 4 cylinder VAG engine. Exhaust does wonders. Obviously the massive mufflers from factory can make anything sound like a hair dryer.
She definitely needs it haha
Nice A4 :) Would you happen to have the part number for the steering wheel? I'm looking for a 3spoke for my A4 :) Thanks!
Can do one better you can have that steering wheel I have the original s4 one to go back in previous owner changed it to not ruin that as he used it for work 😉
Ive got a 1.8t BEX avant, sprint blue for some reason. Ive got a boost leak issue that ive had for 6 monthes and hoping to fix this weekend. Lmk if u managed to fix urs
Yeah a few issues manly split pipes a friend of mine told me intercoolers are sometimes an issues they split down the middle too let me know how you get on as knowledge is power
If you can get a smoke tester that helped me something rotten
Hey guys! I have an a4 avant in the states. 6 speed 1.8t. Now I feel awesome for having that 6th gear.
If you have issues with the wipers like I do, buy some cheap 22" blades and disassemble them. Take the new rubber squeegee and install in your blades. It's pretty self explanatory. Just get one end cap off of your bosch wipers and take all the pieces off one end leaving the other cap on. Slide out rubber piece, replace with new one. Bam. $20 for 2 new wiper blades!
I'm jealous of your door cards and color. But my atlas grey is pretty awesome for stealth speeding since nobody looks at you.
Jay has solved the problem.. we are breaking an Audi he take will wiper motor off that one and swap it.
what’s your ride height?
With hate number 9 i have the same. When shifiting it is Like a Bamm! What you mean with lock for quattro?
Thank god that handbrake problem is only a problem on RHD A4s, that would really piss me off.
Did you find your boost leak?
Did they change to 6 speed in later models then because mines an 04 sline model
I believe they did with different engine combos and age properly doesnt help me 🤪👌
which has weak diff pinon bearings, don't bother
Is that stick 5 with the 5 speed because it can take more abuse if so im down 😉
@@steven-hf1wk Nonsense. Mine's a 6 speed. 180k miles and there's no movement at all. Better than my mate's 16 plate audi a3
Agreed 😃
Hey Bro, could you Tell me the Color Code? in my city Lab Color needs to equalize. Please, your Car Is so cool.
LZ5M my man 😉 I got you
I owned one and I loved the car! It was comfortable and fun to drive with a killer sound system.
Only downside is that the AC, radiator fan, axles, and control arms broke from 119k-155k of driving it.
Looks sweet, what wheels are they, wouldnt mind them on my b6 s4 👍🏻
Hiya big boy jay here well I'm thinking some vw style bbs wheels in gun metal grey and if and when I do your the first person that can come get them 😉
@@drivewaydynamics7653 lol ...what are off? are they the TT ones? Just wondering what the offset is on em?
They are quattro alloys i dont think the stud pattern is the same as the tt need to do some digging myself but the wheels that are on the car are off that car from factory 🏭
@@drivewaydynamics7653 ahh ok cheers for that :) they do look good I'd leave em on lol
Audi b6,b7 avant quattro with 1.8T were the best audi A4 and the one on the best daily car ever.
Own 2004 B6 6-speed Avant Quattro with the BEX 190bhp 20v engine. On line tuning says a reliable 275bhp possible? My insurance broker has the same car & informed me that a guy in germany has the 1.8t 20v with 1000bhp! I believe the BEX engine has a steel bottom end, making it very tough. Mine was 16.9yrs old @ May'21 when bought & 9 owners & 146k miles for £1900. Now 157k miles @ April'23. Goes great, handles nicely, fuel usage circa 30mpg & ULEZ compliant (unlike direct injection 2.0 220bhp engine in the B7). Upgraded the "end of life" exhaust to a TopGear 3.5" stainless version for £550+fitting, now sounds abit like an RS version. IMHO these cars are some of the best Audi made, without being overly complex. I deliberately bought this model as opposed to the complex 4.2 V8 S4/RS4 or even the 3.0 V6. Still got plenty of life left in it - aiming for 200k mileage & 25yrs. :- )
Great video, but you've gotta sort out the wind noise
We are working on it, we need to upgrade our equipment next.
You have to notches on your gas cap that fits the gas flap
I have a black forest green one and it hides dents. Might need to check your linkage. Buy a after market blow off valve that isn't plastic.
Mine is a six speed bex lump on 2005. Thought they all had 6 speed box
The very first batch of b6 audis still had the 5 speeds from the b5s then few later started fazing them out but yeah mines a 2002 still in the 5 speed years could really do with it motor journeys are nice but revs are to high at 70 80 mph for fuel economy
The 163 PS BFB A4 has 5 speed, quite short, unfortunately
It is yes needs the 6 speed in cars won't be 163 for much longer more fuel bigger scale 😉
@@drivewaydynamics7653 is the final drive taller in the 6 speed than the 5? I remember that mk4 VW jetta/golf 5 speeds final drive is not much different than the 6 speed in the GLI/GTI. Maybe only 100 rpm difference in final gear.
No idea (Mike) 🤣
5:56 Why? Bc aftermarket gae bumpers xd
B8 is better since they changed the ratio of the 4x4 but even if i own a quattro , bmw rwd is still better for handling
I have a V6, 3.0. Your shifter is just used and abused. Mine is as stiff as... firm and tight. :) Also, mine is 5 speed, but that's why i am faster from 0-100 than a 6 gears version.
It's the bushes in the gear box it's self or a mixture of being 21 years old 🤣 I will look into see if it fits ill get back to you on that would hate to get it off you and it doesn't fit 😉
Whats Is the real Name of That Color?
Nogaro blue my friend
What bumper/body kit is that?
It's a factory OEM kit called a vortex kit I know a few people that have them for sale
@@drivewaydynamics7653 Ahh looks good mate, have you got any links?
The hand break thing so relateable
Dude, your Gearbox has a problem
My sold A3 8L 1.8T and the snow plow Audi A4 B6 1.8T Quattro Sedan I keep, both have the most soft AND closed gearbox I ever had to play with
I have to say that this almost looks like a troll to me, because weird points...
I do have a "link" and a place to stick my gas trap... Yours is probably a damaged second hand
About the exhaust far from the bumper, I bet something isn't stock, Audi is far beyond that
And about the armrest, you handbrake isn't supposed to go that high, it's damaged (mine stops the car even in the first "Click")
0:58 you have blow off valve in pancake valve location 😂
Wasnt my choice 😕 one was on the car when I got it I do have one 😂 these engines dont really like dump valves anyway well standard cars 👍
LOL 😂
I got a Audi A4 STCC Edition a few days ago and i love the damn car and all the things that you hates about your car is fixed on mine and i do mean everything well not the painted gril i would never do that =D
Never paint the gril just buy one or appreciate the chrome 😅🤣
the exhaust isnt flush beacuse its not the real ultrasport bumper
It's a vortex kit from factory and haven't got a clue why it's sunk in like that seen every one of these kits with factory exhaust like this just a stupid design it would be more audi being tight arses and not building another back box section for the kit this the time before they have the chrome tips lookalike exhaust on the bumpers but yeah the kits is a genuine factory kit 👌
You forgot to mention technology which is ahead of it's time...regardless what year model you drive
I would very much agree for sure 👌
Denim blue color?
Correct 👌
What bodykit is that?
It's a factory kit called a vortex you can find them on some b6 cars
@@drivewaydynamics7653 oh, i’ve never seen it? That means its stock? Know where you can get it?
Yeah is stock factory car think they only came on a few make and models there's another factory kit which looks similar but in my opinion looks worse but you cam find them from time to time check ebay or a4 breaker may have them I can get hold of one kits so let me know 😉
@@drivewaydynamics7653 Okay, thanks! I will let you know.
Are these reliable?
Very reliable if treated correctly normal stuff like service regularly do the very few common faults they have but overall very good comfy cars
Mul on sedanina löysin 59k ajetun yksilön ja vittu et on hyvä auto. Talvella linttaa ja kesällä voi huoletta paahtaa mutkateillä.
Do paint chrome just don’t do a bodge job again 😂 sand it properly with 800 grit that whys your paint didn’t stick also 2 layers of primer at least mate then colour then clear 👍 heat the grille with a heat gun when you spray the clear will help with orange peel 👌
Slightly affended 🙈 i did do all the right processes just the primer I negated to do which didn't help me out at all and was painted on a very hot day with 2k black just the primer I didnt do which in hine sight maybe was or wasn't the contributing factor here but I am experienced enough to know what I need to do just some time things to dont work
@@drivewaydynamics7653 sorry mate didn't mean to cause offence. I didn't know if you sanded or not lol but yeah for plastic you ideally want plastic primer so as it flexes it doesn't crack. Also a 2k colour is a single stage paint that also won't help things on plastic. Try again with the primer or alternatively I'm not sure where your located but we are in the new forrest if you pop by I'd be happy to do it for you free of charge mate. Also might be a good idea to do a video on some detailing and do a few bits to your avant. I've got a cabbie b6 1.8t
Im yanking your chain 😂 i rushed it for the video and the results are because of that all criticism is fine I will gladly take it I think I have poor humor but your right take your time and use the right products results will be in your favour 🙈 i think the can of 2k i used aswell was very old 😄 😅 😀
Enjoy coronvirus at the end...should have got a BEX
Not sure about the problem of your shifter but there could be a cheap solution

20v or 16v
20v big boy
@@drivewaydynamics7653 YES !! sick engine
Handbrake hahaha it's true
Nice stereo 😈
Thanks my man 😂😂😂 good a nice deal on it 😘
You need external audio, it kills the otherwise good quality of the video
We are always looking for criticism and thank you it's something we are looking into for the future always looking to Improve and adapt all still new this technology malarkey thank you thou, appreciated my friend
That shifter should be adressed it did not come that as factory
