SOLD***
Well it’s time to post this. Finally got around to cleaning up the car so here it goes. I’m selling my 2005 S4 in excellent condition for it’s age but I will let the pictures speak for themselves. The car still has a new leather smell when the doors are closed for a while. I do detialing on the side so the car is very clean inside and out. Last year I did a full paint correction on it that took me 30 hours, but it left the paint completely swirl free. Since then, the car has never seen anything besides a wool wash mit with the 2-bucket method. In the winter it get’s the occasional powerwash at the DIY carwash. I have all the original manuals, two flip keys and a valet key, some touch-up paint, and a binder FULL of receipts and my maintenance log. The OEM wheels you see were just re-finished a week ago

Issues/Imperfections:
-Small ding on passenger side front door
-Big dent in the passenger side front fender along the edge, I think the PO told me it was from his kid’s bike or something like that
-two tiny dings on the hood and two tiny dings on the roof. These are only notacable if the light hits it right
-Front bumper has seen 104,000 miles, so it’s got some rock chips. Same for the side skirts and lower face of the door blades. The car was previously in Pensylvania, where they must use sand instead of sald in the winter.
-Rear bumper has a few scratches here and there that you can see in the pictures.
-It appears to have a very slow oil leak from the block that the oil cooler lines connect to going into/out of the motor
-It will occasionally pop out of second gear under deceleration/engine braking when the transmission gets hot.
Oil consumption: About 1 Liter every 3000 miles.
Rattle:With fresh oil it does not rattle on cold start at all. When the oil gets near 1500 miles it starts to rattle every cold start.
Compression test as of 104.5K:
