Is Jurq still reading this forum ?  Sounds like his 83. Sold about a year ago, in that price range with simlar problems. I remember that he concluded it was some kind of fueling problem. vapor lock as a result of not holding fuel pressure. He had already replaced injectors and seals and just ran out of patience. Jim, you out there ???  Twas a great looking/running car (when running).
   
  I actually bought my 84 as a daily winter car. Once I got it home though, I just couldn't do it. 
   
  cheers,

  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
