Posting with a heavy heart our beloved Audi A3 since my job change lets me now work from home and we live in downtown Columbus with no garage.
We are the second owners, bought at 42k miles in 2012 from our long time friends who purchased it new in California for $35090 incl the following options :
- Audi Navigation Plus & Sound package $3300
- Premium Package $1650
- Tech Package $1500
- Open Sky System $1100 (back then no ipads for kids yet) ;-)
it was 100% never smoked in and is in good to fair condition with some TLC needed (see below).
During our friend's ownership the car was always maintained at the Audi dealership in Mission Viejo, CA and while we owned it, it was exclusively maintained at JonsAutocare.com by ASE certified technician and brand expert Jon Hamilton in Marysville, OH. He holds the record on pikes peak in a Golf TDI and used to work on VWs and Audis (now only VWs) and we were fortunate enough to be grandfathered in after he dropped Audi support and were able to still see him with my wife's Golf as well as the A3.
- Sept 2013, 55k miles, replaced air, oil and cabin filer, oil, plugs, fuel system cleaner, $419.53
- March 2015, 73k miles, repaired rear wiper, replaced turbo cut off valve, DSG service, replaced both front outer CV boots, $1396
- May 2015 on Costco parking lot in Easton lady in SUV damaged rear bumper, repair done by VW/Audi certified body shop, Rife's Autobody, lifetime warranty, $1217
- June 2015, 75k miles, replaced AC compressor, flushed AC system, replaced window regulator, $1563
Striving for 100% transparency , here are the issues we know of :
- cracked leather driver seat bottom only
- needs front tires
- repair of front seat backs (common Audi issue, there is a repair kit)
- Timing belt, water pump, tensioners, rollers
- passenger window switch on driver side up function inop
- the latch for the rear moonroof cover is broken
- minor scratches, dents, dings, clearcoat on hood is burned
- regular service, incl brake fluid replacement is due
- CEL due to code P0456 Evap Emission System Leak (most likely seal on gas cap)
for pics taken 10-16-2016 please check here: https://goo.gl/photos/JnDR7MaFJsxbB4PM8.
we are asking $6750 obo.
Also feel free to contact me with educated questions anytime via email.
I am looking for a private buyer with cash in hand.
