    My neighbor has this car in this exact spec aside from the blue interior. It sounds incredible every time it passes my house.
  • Former Audi Tech here, the headers are factory, which is definitely cool. I personally think they probably played a little fast and loose with the emissions, as during my time as a tech I had to replace quite a few cats that failed before the 8 year 80k mile warranty period. They flowed really well though. Valve covers were also factory. The traction control light should also reset automatically after the traction control computer sees input from all the wheel sensors. You shouldn't have to crank the steering wheel, it just needs to learn wheel speeds after the dead battery replacement.
  • USDM, EURO, JDM. This man can do it all! you're one of the few channels that never changed up on its viewers and I honestly never got bored of watching you.

    I see alot of comments saying Alex bought it, he sold alot of cars, and now bought this RS4, and so on... People, pay atention to the video, he literally begins the video with the words "my FRIEND bought" He also hides the licence plate because it's not his. But anyway, even if it was his, so what? He earned all the cars he wants through hard work and being an awesome dad and husband. And this is quite a special car to pass by if it's a good deal.
  • The trick with VW/Audi electrical connectors is push the release tab at the back down, then push the connector IN then pull off. Don't use a pick or you can break the internal locking plastics
  • I love Audis, I cannot afford Audi maintenance, but man, the driving experience is unmatched. Your friend must be stoked

    My sister and brother in law have a 2008. With 30k miles. Swapped in the KW suspension. I’ve driven it a few times, and it’s a ripper. Great car.
  • Used to have a -05 A4 with the 3.2 V6, Avant and a 6-speed manual with quattro. Absolutely love Audis. Especially in this color!

    This car is 100% going to be a future classic. They are just so beautiful and an amazing package for the time period. They handle extremely well, they feel pretty balanced and the powertrain is awesome. Cherry on top is they look fantastic. They are so wide and aggressive looking for the era
  • @magi115
    Wow. Best car you've ever had on the channel. I can't wait for this build.
  • @andyleo8418
    I've been requesting an Audi on this channel for years 😂
  • That milltek exhaust is worth a lot of money for that engine and car !
  • @professorpurp970
    I've learned more from this channel in 1 year, than 3 years as a full-time professional technician at Ford & Chevy.

    6:12 "These old German cars can go NUTS if you have under voltage issues and THAT battery was BAD!!". Oh man can they ever. My buddy had a car that had so many engine lights that were on on his BMW and he was so panicked that the car was a goner!! He was seriously freaking out!! He called me and said "My car is wrecked! It's done! I can't fix all of these problems!!". LOL. I told him to just "Hold on I'm comin". (Just like the song LOL). I have an app on my phone called "Protool" which is German car specific. So I knew it had to be the battery. So I took my battery out of my car and out it in his then erased the codes and wouldn't you know it all he had was a couple of air bag and seat belt I think codes. It was crazy how nuts he got! But he had never seen anything like it so I couldn't blame him. The first time I saw it I was freaked out too! and I ran it through and erased the codes and all that was left was the low voltage and some other

    My buddy in high school had an ‘08 a4 s-line 2.0t 6spd manual and that car was a blast. I cannot imagine what this RS4 variant is like. What a great car…. Now to finish the video! 😂

    This is a truly epic and underrated car. Your friend did everything right
