Chapter 198 Audi A4L (2)

In addition to having a business model, stable value retention rate, large space, Audi's interior is full of science and technology, and the appearance is stable and magnificent, from the suspended central control screen to the cool headlight group, both from the inside to the outside are full of a king's domineering spirit, which is deeply loved by Chinese men.

In addition, Audi's steering wheel is lightweight, comfortable to drive, easy to drive, and the power is smooth and silky, unlike BMW's steering wheel, which is so dead that the young lady can train the unicorn arm, and the little brother can also save the annual fee of going to the gym, and it is not as sluggish as the Mercedes-Benz accelerator pedal.

The chassis of Audi is well tuned, very stable at high speed, and its front and rear suspension materials are very solid and honest in those years, which is much more stable than Japanese cars.

Therefore, for various reasons, the Audi brand is deeply loved by our Chinese people, even if it is a ten-year-old car, some people still buy it.

The impression of Japanese cars to Chinese people is different, that is, the leather and durable scooter, and business has nothing to do with half a dime, even if Acura TL2009 35 luxury sports version landed 67.3 million that year, in the eyes of people is not as good as more than 300,000 Audi A4L has face.

Zhou Hongbo was determined to buy an Audi A4L or an Audi A60L, and Fang Yuan would not stop him, but he just wanted to explain the situation to him clearly and let him choose to make his own judgment.

In fact, the biggest problem of Audi 15 years ago was the second-generation EA888 engine, but if you want to be cheap and have good power, you can't avoid this engine.

The 18L and 20L turbocharged engines mounted on the Magotan, Passat, Tiguan, Audi A4L, Golf GTI, etc., are the second-generation EA888 engines that burn oil and leak engine oil.

Its oil-oil separator has design flaws, resulting in ineffective oil recovery, coupled with excessive carbon deposits in the cylinder to trap the oil ring caused by burning oil, usually accompanied by valve oil seal leakage, usually 1 liter of oil every 2,000 to 3,000 kilometers after 100,000 kilometers.

If the oil volume is reduced, the oil pressure will be insufficient, and the lubrication inside the engine will not be in place, which may lead to excessive wear of the crankshaft bearing and excessive wear of the camshaft, and it may not only change the cylinder head, but also replace the excessive wear and tear together, and the maintenance cost will rise sharply.

The solution can only be to replace the valves, valve guides, valve seals, improved piston rings, oil-gas separators and other components, and the cost ranges from 6,000 to 15,000 yuan.

What's worse is that spending money and wasting time can't solve the problem, and the problem of burning engine oil will recur in another two years, and then you can only spend money to repair it, and toss it again and again.

Speaking of this, Fang Yuan said to Zhou Hongbo that burning engine oil is actually a very common problem, but some people with ulterior motives not only do not face up to this problem, but fool everyone into saying that the engine burns engine oil to protect the engine, which is simply nonsense.

In addition, the timing chain of this second-generation EA888 engine will be slowly stretched after a long time, and if it is not replaced, it will lead to tooth jumping, top valves, and if it is serious, it will be overhauled if it is not good, so it must be replaced for up to 100,000 kilometers.

The maintenance cost needs to be determined according to the number of replacement parts, and if the turbine needs to be moved, the maintenance cost will go to about 10,000 yuan.

Therefore, if you want to buy Audi's turbo series second-hand cars, you must be psychologically prepared to accept the second-generation EA888 engine to burn oil, and you must have a heart that can toss and dare to toss, otherwise you will be smashed by this second-generation EA888 engine.

In addition to the problems of this second-generation EA888 engine, this Audi A4L also has a lot of minor problems.

If there is a creaky or rattling sound when hitting the direction in winter, but it does not sound in summer, first consider whether the small pole of the balance bar is broken.

Every time the car starts, there will be a rattle, which is a problem with the connection of the internal parts of the gearbox, which is a common problem and is not a failure.

Its wastegas valve is prone to problems, especially after the first year, the spring performance of the wastegate will be attenuated, and the spring diaphragm is easy to age after years of high temperature.

Check valves are also prone to problems, and the rubber joints may become brittle and hard over the years, resulting in poor sealing, water and air leakage.

In addition, this Audi is an electronic dipstick, and it is not accurate to judge the amount of engine oil.

It is necessary to use the reset function, turn off the engine for two minutes after the car is warmed, loosen the buckle of the hood but do not open the cover, insert the key without stepping on the brake, press the key to the energized position, and observe the dashboard for about 10 seconds before the most accurate oil level appears.

......

The only thing to be thankful for is that although there are many small problems with this Audi A4L, they are all fixed, the problems of a hundred cars are basically the same, as long as there is a certain fault, go to a certain location, unlike some domestic cars, a hundred cars have a hundred different problems, and it is not easy to find out where the fault is when the hair of the repairman is gone.

Compared with repairing the car, the maintenance of this Audi A4L is the most important.

Because of the long age of the car, after the mileage is more, if the original owner neglects to clean up, all kinds of oil, electronic components, batteries, rubber seals and even tires are prone to problems.

After checking the five oils and three waters, spark plugs, brake pads, tires, chassis rubber sleeves, electronic components, batteries, water tank water pipes, etc., it is best to clean up each piece of glass, plastic parts of the interior, seats, etc., to see if there is any damage, abnormal noise, wrinkles, collapses, and broken places.

From the advantages of this Audi A4L, common problems to how to prepare, Fang Yuan made it clear what should be paid attention to and some details that are easy to ignore.

When Fang Yuan finished his introduction and looked at Zhou Hongbo quietly, he found that his face was blue for a while, and then white changed several colors in an instant, and his embarrassed appearance seemed to be engaged in a fierce mental struggle.

At this time, Zhou Hongbo was really weighing the pros and cons, what he just said about buying Sonata 8, what maintenance, wanting Fang Yuan to introduce the situation was actually deliberately testing Fang Yuan.

The truth is that he sold his 80% new Sonata 8 in order to buy a house and pay a down payment.

However, due to the nature of the job, I can't live without a car, so I have always wanted to buy another model suitable for business trips.

Zhou Hongbo pondered that his money was not enough, so he wanted to buy a second-hand Audi A4L, or Audi A6L, he felt that such a business-like, large and easy-to-drive model could meet the needs of his work and family.

However, Zhou Hongbo knew that the second-hand car market was deep and muddy, and he only knew a little about cars, so he did not dare to go to the second-hand car market to buy a car, for fear of being cheated.

Fortunately, I met Fang Yuan today.

This young man is real, solid business, after he told him the idea of buying a car, he did not blow the models in his store like other salesmen, but introduced himself to the model, just said a few words about the advantages of the model, but the focus of the introduction was on the shortcomings and problems, and told himself how to maintain it.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, this kind of intimate and alternative introduction made Zhou Hongbo feel very surprised, but also made him feel very moved in his heart, and he really realized Fang Yuan's sincerity, and decided that buying a car in Fang Yuan's hands would be the wisest choice.

"Brother Fang, you are indeed very professional, and I understand your kind brother. Zhou Hongbo smiled bitterly and told the truth to Fang Yuan, "I just bought a house and paid a down payment, and I can't afford not to have a car, after knowing the situation of this 2009 Audi A4L, I can also buy a car boldly with confidence." ”

"Hmm. Although it wasn't Tong Lei who bought the car, he also stared at Fang Yuan, looking very excited, "You introduced it in great detail just now, although I didn't understand anything, but I think that buying a car from you will not be deceived at all." ”

"That's what I thought, too. Zhou Hongbo patted Tong Lei's shoulder, turned his head and said to Fang Yuan, "Okay, let's go to Fangyuan's store to buy a white 2009 Audi A4L later."

"White Audi A4L?" Fang Yuan shook his head slightly, "No, I can only sell you a black Audi, not other colors." ”

"Why?" Hearing Fang Yuan's neat refusal, Tong Lei and Zhou Hongbo were stunned, and the two of them stared at Fang Yuan with wide eyes, not knowing why he said that.

"As a high-end business model, the paint has a great impact on the Audi A4L and Audi A6L. After Fang Yuan explained the main colors of each model, he told Zhou Hongbo and Tong Lei that Audi A6L used to be an official car and a commercial car, and the color became particularly particular, because business people like Audi such a stable model, only black is solemn, so black is the most valuable.

But if it is not a black Audi, even if it is the same model and the same car condition, the price difference is at least one or two hundred thousand.

The impact of body color on Audi A4L is not as serious as Audi A6L, it is still the best black best-selling, Zhou Hongbo buys a car for work, black is formal, suitable for business atmosphere, and then wait until Zhou Hongbo's economic situation improves and wants to sell the car, in order to lose less money.
