[Vwdiesel] Craigslist diesels, Seattle area

[B & R Decker]

The 85 Audi 5000 CS Turbo I had was a 3 spd auto with a 5 cyl gas engine. I
don't think a diesel was available in 85

When I was in high school, (Ontario, Canada, mid to late '80s), one of my 
friend's parents had a 1985 5000 TD.  It was metallic gold/brown with brown 
interior.  Had a 3-speed auto.  Any idea of what engine this would have 
been?
