[urq] 83 on ebay

[Brandon Rogers]

Sounds like starter heat soak to me.  Not uncommon.  Have him see if the
shielding is in place.  Most start isues that I've seen are warm start -
ie hot start is fine and cold start is fine. 
Never try to guess the cost to repair anything on urquattro.

Subject: [urq] 83 on ebay


There is an 83 ur-quattro back on ebay. This is the third time its been
listed The owner says he paid 16K a year ago. Had a buy it now for 16K .
I was high bidder at 6100 but well below the reserve. The buy it now is
$ 13,500. Talking to the owner, he stated the only issue the car has is
that after a ride that gets the engine to normal temperature the car
will not re-start immediately, you have to wait 10-15 minutes before it
will re-start. Can anyone tell me what they think the problem could be
and what the cost to repair might be? My A-4 lease is up in 6 months and
am thinking about an ur-quattro for a daily driver since my commute is
less than 3 miles.

Thanks,

Marty
