Videos keep getting better. Somehow it’s really satisfying to see these abandoned cars getting back on the road.
Dude, these older cars are hidden gems! Underrated automotive gold! Built to last years, especially with care! They just don't make them like they used to! #nostalgia #childhood
Childhood ? This one is not _that_ old.
@@julosxHe's obviously just a youngster, I feel the same way about 80s Ford Sierra's. 🤷♂️ 😉 😂
Полностью согласен. Была у меня audi a6 c4 Quadro 2.6 сумасшедший аппарат! Комфорт, скорость и проходимость.
Such an amazing car, and now is back on the road again, it is in prestine condition. Greetings from Spain and keep up saving those amazing cars!!

You're right These cars are very amazing
Prestine condition would be going a bit far but it is nice I suppose
12:50 Mnnnnnññnñnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnñnnñ
The 2.8 is a great engine. The 30v a little less so than the 12v, but they're definitely some of the better NA engines Audi has made.
My 2.8l 98 a6 lasted only 330k before it blew headgasket 😔
you're saying the 12v is better than the 30v?
@@antiochiaadtaurum3786 Yes and no.
My mercede w124 e280 was standing about 5 years,when i was to turn him on one of my friends did not belive that car will work,all i need to do is to knock fuel pump and the engine turn on.his words was"how much money you ask for this car"
@@madijs8700 it has oil flow issues I think, the first aah engine does at least
Interior is brand new man what the hell!
Edit : after watching the video i realised the car itself is brand new.
Glad to see an old Audi not being forgotten, I had an Audi A6 1999 with a 2.4l V6 engine in Germany for 5 years. Bought it for 800€ with 280k km in 2015. Sadly I moved to Austria in 2020 and had to give it back to my old boss with 430k km! Imagine that!!! A tank of a car!
Why move to Austria i don't understand that why
@@jerrypohatu7204 Im closer to my home( from Croatia ) and i'm home every weekend as suposse to Germany every 3 weeks so thats the reason.
@@zvonimir9984 cool
Good save there! Turned out to be a really nice avant too. I had two V6 Syncro Passat's with that same engine. One was an auto and one was a manual. I think the engine is better suited to an auto, as there really isn't anything at the top end of the rev range apart from more noise 😂 whereas the zf 5spd auto keeps the engine in the power band better. Couldn't see from the service history booklet, but if it hasn't been done, the auto box would work even better with an oil and filter change. As those 5spd zf boxes are pretty robust too. 👍😎
ZF Gear is the top builder of gear trains in the modern world 😊
That always seems to be a common problem with VW products is things related to coolant (thermostats, coolant temperature sensors). I’m amazed at how smoothly it ran.
Don't forget coolant plastic pipes, especially on vr6 for example.
Great car, had that engine on an A6. Best car i've ever driven. Very nice to see it rescued, however that noise that comes from the engine during cold start could be the camshaft chain tensioner going out and making those rattlings by letting the chain slip. If you plan on keeping the car it wouldn't hurt to check that.
Anyway, great video!
Yeah, this is a common thing and with that much rattle at start it should be replaced. Also I think i heard some exhaust leaks? Good to see another b5 back on the road and I am glad that you let her got home on her own wheels. 😉
That chain tensioners are a little pain in the butt as easiest way is to replace it is to take engine out as they are at the back of the engine.
Also common thing are the leaks from camshafts covers. Many people complain about oil consumption in those engines, but once I sealed leaks like this there is almost no oil losses between changes. I have it in Manual and I track day it from time to time. On my channel you can see an onboard video.
Wow - v6 quattro, automatic gearbox and manual rear windows -very interesting specification ;)
Love those B5's! Very nice to see it being rescued and put back on the road! One of the last good NA engines very robust model, too bad they don't make them like they used too. Greetings from Portugal!
Через 2 дня - почти новая машина с минимальным пробегом! Ездил немецкий пенсионер в магазин и обратно!
Не знаете менталитет людей в этой стране - молчите
Great video!
Especially the fact that you gave it such a detailed interior cleaning, great job man!
They didn’t get a line wrong in these cars. Audi styling in the late 90’s - early 00’s was top notch! These are increasingly rare in the USA. Most have succumbed to years of deferred maintenance and neglect. I never understood why even premium home market European cars of the period often had crank windows in the back. We didn’t get this in the US. Lovely car
Timing chain system said: "HELLO! Long time no see."
Really good transformation, fantastic sound of the 2,8 V6 engine. Nice work!
Отличный кузов для своего времени , не считая хреновое решение в виде алюминиевой многорычажки
За то какая мягкая
Wow! Unlike most cars in this channel, she ran out her bed herself without a glitch! And the 2.8 petrol engin is smooth like a VIOLIN! I bet the initial yelling was the hydraulic valve system getting lubed first time...
I'm beast. This Audi A4 is the newest car to be rescued so far. If the translation is ok, the brakes defect, it was air in the system!!! silly defect. The temperature sensor, even on the Volkswagen Gol in Brazil, has 4 pins (there is a version with two pins). His position, on top, excellent!! As for the light on the panel, even with the sensor changed, if you didn't have the VAG-COM, the ideal would be to remove the battery terminals and leave it for about 5 minutes without it, reconnect it, and turn it off, every two or three starts. In my car (a Volkswagen Gol), this happens, I don't know if in Audis, it's the same procedure.
I got a Caravan that was parked because it apparently had bad brakes.
It was low on fluid. Yeah.
Even check engine light on, This car is still on good condition, why people just left this on their backyard ?
В России за такое ведро ещё 6000-7000$ захотят)
Damn thx.. Now i miss my old -98 A6 2.8 quattro. Lowered to be a snow plow without even hesitating on driving through the Swedish winter roads
Love the channel. You make it all look so easy. My B5.5 Passat would sit for 2 days and have double the problems. It was pristine yet always behaved badly.
Nice to see this car back on the streets. Good Job
Спасибо, отличный автомобиль, мне видео очень понравилось побольше, бы таких автомобилей!
Интересно, за сколько его продали?
Hi from uk 👋👍 great gem this one a had b6 1.8 quattro which was standing for over year 👍that first start tho was hard on my ears and soul cos when some sit for will oil tensioner loses its values and needs to rebuild pressure. this one tho came up really well👌 its got the bottle and brush detail rather than usual quick scrub up so good job👍 that dsg gearbox was great to but I noticed the fuel went from nearly full to near empty (take it you drove this one a bit👌 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon👍👋
What an awful spot for the battery, I'm glad they started putting them in the trunk.
What a great Chill video. I sold my A6 C7 2015 1 year ago, wanted to try Volvo V60... i am still regreting it, gonna go back to A6 next year.
The A4 B5 is a classic, a wonderful design with a superb balance of backseat and boot space. Even after all these years it still looks modern. We have an 1996 A4 1.9TDi 90BHP auto in the family and I cherish it , even if it demands a lot of LTC these days.
A very nice Audi !!! These models are so much better than the new models. Whe drive the same Audi but than a 1.9 TDI diesel and the engine whas super, 535.000 km when whe sold here, but the new owner is restoring the car so it will be a real oldtimer !! Nice video !!
Why did they throw 20,000 dollars in the trash? Did you finally take ownership of the vehicle?
This car cost about 1000-2000€ only in estonia if its quattro and manual
@@Flexiny But what did you do with this abandoned car? the law allows you to keep and be yours?
Here you need to find owner, then talk with him about price and buy it and register as your car. Nothing is free here.
@@Flexiny Here is the same, but you did a lot of work before to contact the owner.
@@Flexiny wich is your methodologhy? did you buy all this cars and then fix them?
I was yelling.. the cabin air filter!!!!! when you were using the water preassure machine on the engine bay
😂😂😂
Such beautifully made cars. They exude quality in a way none of the newer ones do. Built to be owned and cherished, not leased and replaced every 3 years.
If this was for sale locally where I live I’d buy it immediately. Been looking for a Quattro A4 or B4 Audi 80 for a while. Also considered a C4 Audi 100 but the only local one needs work but the owner is refusing to sell it.
Well, I thought that you give the car so much love on one day, that it doesn't have in his life. You're definitely a car guy 😄
That battery placement though. German engineering at its finest.
He didnt remove all the plastics btw, so it woluld be easier to remove
I later removed for battery install 😀
There should be more cars like this on the road.
Dude, got the same car and I really hate when people are lazy enough to remove the passenger part of the lower windshield cover to remove the battery. Its way easier and you do not brake the cover. So happy you did that at least when you put the new battery. I kinda relate, because I bought a car like this, blue after 3 years of sitting outside. And its perfect.
Old school Audi's rules 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪 Thanks for uploading about this Quattro beauty..💎💎💎💎💎💎👌👍
the Audi A4 B5 for me is one of the best Audi ever built together with the B6 and B7.
Cars built to last over time. I had the B7 1.9 Tdi 116 Hp and I did 500,000 km without ever having a problem. Audi always Audi❤
Отличная машинка! Молодец! Ностальгия по хорошим честным машинам. Захотелось такую же.)
Hello Flexiny,
Thank you for sharing this video of a top-of-the-range Audi A 4 model. It is a model that we still see a little on our roads, especially in its TDI version.
At least you didn't have to do timing belts or whatever, apparently many a mechanic suffers PTSD from working on audis... :P
Лучший звук двигателя из всех,что я слышал!Спасибо за видео!
Dont understanding why this perfect car was abandond
Because of brakes, owner of it fixed it only in Audi service.
Greetings from Romania!
Saulut varule oare o vinde asta ?😂😂
I love your Videos :-)
Your dedication to restoring old cars is amazing.
Greetings from Germany :-)
Ese coche es normal que arranque,es gasolina y un buen motor no el mejor en consumo pero fiable..los diesel ya es otra historia...👍👍
Los autos Alemán son los mejores del mundo..... Gustavo dé argentina 👍
This is the Stuff i like !
I dont give a shit about Electric Sports cars or Buggatis etc.
I could watch this for Hours, i also got an 1994 A8 D2 and try to Restore it a bit
I have the same seats in my 2000 a4.. beige zebra pattern lol
It cleaned up very well!! Nice job fixing! 👍👍
Estos autos son excelentes,yo tengo uno del 2008 y es fiel a pesar de que lo encontré muy deteriorado logré salvarlo y ahora no falla.y creo que tengo auto para rato.saludos desde Chile.👏👏
This Audi is beautiful. And strong.
22:24 what was that noise in engine?
Probably timing chain or something.
Chain noise yes, chain tension is getting loose if there is low oil pressure or car is standing for long time
Can you show what engine oils are you using for oil changes on those cars in your videos?
I used to work with a lady who drove one of these. The only difference is that her car had a manual transmission. Otherwise, it looked just like yours. Great video!
Excellent job my man ! Good to see another wasted car back on the road, especial an Audi. Hope you made your money, you deserved it mate,
Блин, какие же всё таки в Европе гоняют интересные тачки. Я бы себе прикупил полноприводный универсал. А то Нива избыточна в проходимости, а по комфорту уступает легковушкам.
Have a all wheel drive car myself. Need to up here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We get serious snow here in the winter.
what diagnostic tool are you using?
VCDS Hex V2
More "Detail Geek" vibes at 19:00 😅 love it!
Wonderful station wagon!! All the bells and whistles included. What did you pay for it when it was sitting for 2 years?
I think it was about 800€ and later sold about 1200 or 1250 after month/months of selling. Nobody wanted it because it was an automatic.
Great video flexiny, amazing work, such a great car, and an excellent engine, nice easy fix for you👍👌😀
German engineering at its best! great video
nice car, check the car book, there may be a code for the radio.
Thanks! There was radio code, I forgot to record radio. I had code inserted after inspection
The audi a4 b5 is a very good car👌
One of the best car ever made ! :)
You have done a great job, but the problems of the cars in the north of europe are the roads with snow , ice and salt for long time, so the mechanical parts under the veichle are full of rusty after some years.
Шикарный авто, да и версия с 2.8 и кватро, это огонь.👍

A v6 engine car don't have electrical windows in back
Common in older A4's
1:57 the oil pump did not have time to pump oil?
It is chain noise, audi need oil pressure for chain tensioner and it was loose because of standing.
we expected a 0-100 tbh
0-100 launch is bad for automatic gearbox
This is yours?
Aniway good job!
Yes. Thank you!
Which product do you use to clean motor before washing with hi pressure?
Sadly father bought it years ago and we don't know brand
FLExiny, do you sell this car? I am kinda interested
:D
How much you offer for it?
millal kevadised masinad tulevad ..väljas juba suur ja mõnus eestile kohane ahahahha soe ilm ....
Natuke aega läheb, kaks videot veel mis sellised kevadisemad/talvisemad 😀
Looks nice for a 21 years old car and it have a very good engine, amazing work, I love your videos, I recently discovered your channel and I can't stop watch their.
Congratulations on the Audi :) I drive a 1994 Audi A8 4.2L V8, amazing when it drives (and Audi Space Frame, no rust!) but maintenance can be a pain. Currently halfway through repairing the infamous oil cooler leak on it, terrible job to be honest...
cool video, but where do you find all of these abandoned cars? are they all just listed on sites like ebay?
Years ago it was from sites but latest cars are bought from owners, just been asking them if they sell car.
@@FlexinyGood way to do it 😊😊😊.
Шикарный аппарат и состояние!
Upd: удивлен "веслам" на задних дверях. Ох уж эти странные ВАГовские комплектации тех лет по запросу из салона)
in Germany you throw away lots of cars in very good condition...don't know why, cant understand.
Hit that subscribe button guys!
I wonder what special car will Flexiny do for us for 300K :D
Pessoal joga cada coisa fora por aí 🤷
Greetings from Poland!
We had one in pearl white. Great little car. Awesome in winter! :)
Would love to have that here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We get a lot of snow.😊
Gotta say I love my 1999 b5a4 2.8. It’s at 88000kms still!
23:23 Looks like the rear bumper isn't matching the body color, and we are pleased to get that dent out of the front right bumper, Anyways very nice content and that car was good AF !
Nice car a 2.8 too!! Rescued 👌😉
vaatasin enamus videot, kuni markasin eesti nreid, tubli ja edu
Наконец то дождался видео ))))) спасибо , очень круто
Good job 👏 man
I like watching your videos it makes me feel relaxed and happy and satisfied 😌
I love Audi B5 :)
That Audi was quite a special find! :) It looks wonderful after a bit of TLC! :)
hi, would it be possible to share the details about the price, how much was spent to repair the car and how much is the profit in the videos in the future. thank you for your passion and work.
Hi, at first I had idea to make car flip video but nobody bought this car. Total cost was about 1100-1200€
@@FlexinyThey missed out! Car is in good shape for year. Too bad am here in the USA. Don't think I would be permitted to import a European spec car here into the US. 😢
This Car is 21 years old.
Fantastic engine enjoy It . Good job
In my country this car would still be a pretty expensive car. 5-10.000€ depending on condition.
I try to sell for 1500 and nobody wants it 😀
@@Flexiny 1500 here would only buy you a 1995 1.6 in the same condition as some of the worse one you have started on your channel :D
@@FlexinyThat is a good price especially all you did with it. Unfortunately I am here in the USA so I think it would cost a fortune to get it here. 😮😊
Great cars build to last. I have a B5 limousine myself. Never had a better driving car than that!
Wjat a lovely car, its wonderful how it started first try after sitting all that time. It's cleaned up very nicely too, and I'm pleased you managed to pull out the dentin the front wing. Great work
