3. I've always been really into Dodge, then Subaru. My boss used to have an A8, also a 97 like my A4...and that thing was pretty amazing, since I've ridden in that car so many times I've grown to like Audi's a lot...the deal was pretty good on this A4 so i decided to go for it

Just wanted to see how many of the B5 forum are new members. The demographic of audi ownership is changing as the prices are more in the reach of the younger generation.

We helped our 17 year old son buy his first car about two months ago, a 1998 Audi A4 Quattro 2.8 5-Speed. Current squawks:
- Significant oil leak; I haven't dug into it yet, but it looks like its from the right cylinder bank. The leak wasn't at all bad when we bought the car, but now its dumping roughly a quart of oil on the ground per tank of gas.
- Bad left rear shock which moans and complains especially when it's cold out (it was 11°F this morning when I took his car to the bus-stop and it was really noisy).
- Exhaust leak.
- Needs an alignment.

Hey everybody! I found this forum last night looking for answers as to why my oil light comes on when the car's cold. So here I am!
My car:
1996 Audi A4 Quattro 2.8 V6
Manual trans
Dark blue/tan leather
A little over 145k miles
Do you like your new audi?
I love this car. It's got great throttle response, good handling, and is just a quality vehicle all around. It sucks for gas mileage in the city, though.
How long have you owned it?
Since December 2011.
Why did you decide to buy one?
I had a 98 VW Passat, and in the course of work one night (I am a delivery driver) I totaled the car. Two weeks later, $4500 cash in hand, I found the car at a little used dealer around here and snapped it right up!
Was there another vehicle you were thinking about before you bought the audi?
I looked at a lot of cars before I bought this one. I even looked at another A4, but it was an automatic and I am a firm believer that if you like driving, which I do, you should own a manual. None of the other cars I looked at were in as good a shape or quite as pretty as my A4.
