Howdy! I know this is going to be an odd sale, and the car is already on Ebay, so it's hopefully going, one way or another.

I'm just going to copy and paste my Ebay posting, as everything is the same.

For more details, please do not hesitate to call me at 419-701-4730. This vehicle was purchased by me in November of 2013. The vehicle was involved in a flood, and water came up to under the seats; damaging a lot of the electrical components, locking the seat in place, etc. The vehicle, when shipped to me from Florida, was completely drivable, albeit for the driver's seat locked in the "all the way back" position. I purchased and replaced the driver's seat, and have been driving the car since.

The car really is fantastic. I ended up purchasing a new set of wheels/tires for the winter, which will also be included. The wheels are from TireRack. I cannot link them directly, but they are: 18x8 Black Painted MSW Type 19 and the tires themselves are Blizzak WS70s. The wheels/tires are obviously very new, and cost ~1200$ last December.


The following items are still in need of replacement/repair/troubleshooting. The parts themselves are typically not expensive (the most expensive being the passenger seat, at ~500 online)
1) Passenger seat. The seat is about 1/2 way back currently, allowing for passengers to sit comfortably, assuming they're not too tall. My wife sits in it fine, and she's 5'6". The seat will need removed, wiring under the seat cleaned up, and new seat installed.
2) Electrical system troubleshooting: Currently, only the driver's side window works. Further electrical troubleshooting would be needed to get the other windows functional.
3) MMI is currently non functional. The amp in the trunk was damaged in the flood, and replaced. However, the MMI controls themselves are all dark; my assumption is they got wet in the flood. The screen is high up enough to have been spared in the flood, but the MMI controls/associated electrical components may have been hit.
4) Passenger side seat belt. The seat belt itself is fine, but the retraction mechanism got wet, and now it no longer wants to retract. I have purchased a replacement seat belt unit, and will be including it in the car.
5) There is a CEL related to misfire on Cylinder 5; in researching it, there looks to be an Audi-ECU flash that fixes the problem in 2012 model year vehicles. However, due to no warranty, I cannot get the flash, at least for free. My original, long term plan was to purchase GoAPR's ECU tune for the car, but for right now the CEL is active.
6) Parking Brake Light: This is related to the "Parking Brake ECU" that is located under the passenger's seat, and/or the parking brake switch/button on the center console.
7) TPMS alert: This is related to the fact I swapped out wheels/tires during the winter, and was unable to reset the TPMS via the non-functional MMI. TPMS in these cars is sensor-less, so there are no sensors in the rims themselves, they just need to be reset in the MMI.
8) Airbag light: This is related to the airbag sensors in the passenger seat.

One thing I will stress is the unknown; these are what I know is wrong with the vehicle. Being a flood/salvage/rebuilt title car, I hold no responsibility to what else might be damaged, or needing repair. I've been daily-driving the car for the last several months, and I see no issues outside of what's been noted, but the "Buyer Beware" should be obvious. I will be happy to share any and all information I have; just give me a call and I can go over what's-what with the car.

As for financing the vehicle, from my experience anyway, I had no issue getting a used car loan for it. That said, I am paying off the lien with this sale, and will obviously process and ship out the title ASAP. Please do your due diligence if you plan to finance it; for me, I simply did one of the "check ready" car loans from PNC, and they never even asked/cared about the Rebuilt Title. Geico, likewise, made no note of it. The vehicle is priced well under the KBB value, so loans should be fairly flexible, if you decide to go that route.

*END EBAY*

Basically, the car still needs work. This must is obvious. I just have no grand desire to do it; I like the car, but would rather spend my money and energy on something else. No harm no foul.

The ebay Item Number is 141349446668; go to Ebay and search for that. Please check Ebay for pictures.

If you'd rather not deal with Ebay, my "non Ebay Buy It Now Price which I'm sure violates Ebay rules" is 25,000 out the door. I'll help arrange shipping and such, as the car is in Ohio.

Again, this is not going to appeal to most people; it simply isn't. But if it does, hey, it could work well!
