For the ceiling and a pillars- get a real thick brush with fine bristles, put the shampoo on the brush and sort of just tap at the upholstery instead of brushing, while blot-drying with a towel frequently.... Or else you'll mess it up ad get frays everywhere. It's a long tedious process, but it'll look brand new when you're done, and done right.

Well I think you are going to have to prove that it's awd by taking a pic of the rear end with the rear diff. in sight.

She needs some TLC but she should clean up nice.

I'll have to agree with 1.8t. There seems to be no evidence of quattro here, but prove us wrong!

Ah yes, Its a fwd, which would make it capable of turning on all wheel drive and back too two wheel drive, so it's not a Quatro though it is a v6 2.8
So today was a long day, first off I went to a few auto places and found different things Id need to fix the interior, a. duck tape, b. seat covers, c. new steering wheel cover, d. new floor mats, e. Armor all. So I used those a vacuum
and a shampooer, to clean the interior the best I could on a budget of 600. I only spent a total of 95. So I did good and it looks really clean oh and I bought New peddles, for all 3 of course, new cloth for the shift **** as well. Tomorrow is a family reunion I have to attend so I won't be able to get any thing done. Though I'm going to stop and look at fabrics to redo the entire interior of the car besides the carpet, the sealing and the doors of the car, I also need to fix the leak in the sun roof which I think ill need to get a new seal that's all. I was going to do just about every thing black then I woke up, lol I figure the interiors going to be black and grey eather way. So Ill do chrome rims soon. Once I complete the interior I'm going to post it up on here, wish me good luck. bye.

id give your more proof but I can't open the hood. The best I can do is give you this picture and my word, and the word of the previous owner, + it has way to much power and speed to be a 4 banger.+ there's no turbo only thing that pictures mean't to show is the fact that you don't have to own a quattro to have a v6 Its just going to be fwd , not awd.

You may want to do some research on that sunroof leaking problem. I recently recieved a letter about a recall to fix it and I thought it said something about it also taking care of issues that were caused by the leaking, such as carpet and maybe headliner. So before you go dumping money into those things save it for all the other real maintainence stuff you should be doing like timing belt, coil packs, MAF sensor, and so on and so on....

yeah i was just going to put clear silicon to fill it, simple leak stopper lol. Today me and my brother took apart most of the interior of the car. Tomorrow I want to at least try and finish take every thing out that needs to be, and start fabricating its a bitch. With the audi if your not careful **** will break on you. But about the window Its not big deal right now.

Yeah so, We removed just about all the panels on the inside of the car. Today its way to damn hot to do any thing so Ill have to wait till the evening to work on it. I Have a really nice black leather material for the roof, and for the door handles and other things I have a black alligator skin. ik it sounds weird but its really nice and almost matches the steering wheal. I'm going to make it look allot classier, soon Ill be putting in black carpet. Give me IDEAS PLEASES PEOPLE LOL. I want to make this car as luxuries as possible. well I gotta go be back today.
