audi's have lots of problems and are expensive to repair. Many of them have oil pan damage so that the threads are stripped and you'd need to buy a new oil pan which is not very cheap

how many miles do u have? If the trade seems a little too good to be true it probably is. Anything w over 100k is likely to have a lot of problems.

WTF? 1996?

Recharge the A/C? Are you sure its a simple recharge, or will you need to replace the condensor and other parts soon thereafter?

I looked into getting an A4, when I was looking to buy my car, and after tons of research I decided on the CL.

I haven't looked back ever since, and I don't regret going CL.

no I wouldn't be sure of that cause I know a common problem on the 96 a4 is the A/C evaporator and can be a $700+ expense and from what I've researched a lot of the suspension components suck...of course I wouldn't just trade my CL and not do any research on the A4 first that's a big ... YES IT'S A 96...
