Default test drove an a4 today questions??

I went today and test drove an a4 by my house today. The airbag and abs lights were on and the brake lights were blinking. Also when I looked on ebay last week a couple of cars had the saem problem. Tomorrow im gonna bring it to autozone to get it scanned. Is this common on a4's??

I test drove an A4 yesterday. It was a B6 (2002) 1.8T quattro. It had scuff marks on the rims from the lady who drove it before rubbing them agains the curb and it had a small tear in the leather. Other than that it looked and drove brand new. Incredible experience. If everything goes through with my trade in I should have it in a couple weeks.

What year is yours and how much for?

yo the abs and brake light on at the same time mean that an ABS sensor is either disconnected or has gone bad. It's a pretty easy fix, I know this happened to me and the car ran like ****, almost like the brakes were on at all times... get that sensor fixed and everything should be cool..

peace

Are you sure you want to buy this car? I just have a bad feeling about it. The owner has no idea what year the car is or how to use the sunroof? (btw, just turn the ****)
