One of your videos was so exciting that it made me watch all your videos and now I know you are a professional.

[@poplaurentiu4148]

Love you guys decided to save this S4 from scrapyard.. Even the car can not be started it still has lots of value parts. Those magnesium alloy rims on this car are quite special named Avus in good condition are worth 500 $ each rim, not mention the engine and gearbox and different other parts that can be sold as well for good money.. Would be fun to see like a part 2 or what happen with the car next.. tank you, you guys grow beautifully, we watch you from Europe, so keep doing good work !!!

Likely not scrapyard, but part-out, so everything that somewhat survived is sold since it makes more financial sense to sell it in good parts versus selling it as a whole needing A LOT of work

Great video, I like having you guys talk and show your personalities in it!

[@BushmanEVO]

Love that 2.7 biturbo v6! One of the top best sounding audi engines

[@estebanjosealvarado3138]

I just got on the Audi wagon a few weeks ago. Got a good deal on a 2000 A4 S-Line. It's now in the shop getting the rear shocks and front bushings replaced. Everything on it works: all the electronics work; sunroof, windows, sound system. Next come timing belt and coolant replacement, and I got to fix one of the headlights because it seems water got into it, and replace the infamous LCD screen. It only has 84.000 miles on it, seats are not ripped or anything. so I think I got a pretty good car. The moment I drove it for the first time I was like "ok, THIS is what driving a nice German car means". I'm hooked!

[@Alex-zq1jj]

Hello from Germany from the world-famous trade fair city of Leipzig. Your so-called air tube.. 😄😉🤣 this is a ski bag to store equipment and to protect the interior from dirt and moisture. Many German buyers of the legendary best all-wheel drive system often went on winter vacation to Switzerland, Austria or Italy. This bag protects the interior. best regards Alex I've been following your channel for 2 years.

[@evanchadwick4900]

I love that you guys show your personalities while detailing it makes the videos more fun to watch and also just funnier as well

[@steveszirmai9125]

I owned a 2000 B5 S4 (bought in Houston, sold in Seattle, its only 2 homes, always garaged, never raced) in this color combo from new until 194k. original clutch until 189k. An awesome car!!! Regret selling, but as with every Audi, lots of maintenance costs along the way. Minimum $750 to $2500 each time I took it in. Great job, WD Detailing!

[@AVC-Works]

I've had several Audi S8's 1996/1998 with manual transmission. Loved them and miss them. Like to have one of those and a 2010 RS6 saloon

[@MrHuismeester]

We drove a AUDI A 4 B5 stationwagon with the 1.9 TDI ( diesel) engine from 1999, with more than 535.000 kilometers with no problem what so ever! Very reliable and with excellent driving and never have any problems , so that was the best car ever and we did drive it for more than 22 years ! The bag from the rear end you blow air in it and put your ski,s in it so you want damage the interior. And our Audi did not have any rust spot on it even there are a lot salt during the winters !

[@dustinbrake8407]

I love the detail and mechanical aspect to it!!! Well done

[@airtimer2958]

He's right about these things being reliable and I can confirm. We have a 1999 Audi A8 D2 2.5TDI and the car itself has 476100km or so on the dash and counting. And after all it has been through the car is virtually indestructible, and I have no doubt it can go for more. Sure the valve stem seals started leaking but thats the ONLY major issue right now. Else than that she still purrs and hauls around normally. These old Audis were one hell of a reliable beast man. And the suspension was and still is definitely ONE OF THE GREATEST in the game, its one of the nicest and most comfortable suspensions in a cheap car like that ever. You can pick up a 1999 s8 4.2 V8 here nowadays for like 4-5000 euro which is basically nothing. Great video!

[@jhconjr]

Thanks for saving it! Still a beautiful car. Hopefully someone can get it running and finish getting it sorted. Nice to hear the conversation besides just the cleaning. Keep up the great work!👍👍👍👍

[@enjoythesho1992]

No one is going go restore that car

[@jhconjr]

@@enjoythesho1992 Why not? Get 400WHP without too much trouble and better weight balance than the 4.2L V8. Doesn't sound as rorty, but a blast to drive. If the electrical is not too bad from the flooding, it could be done. The leather is an easy fix. Or would you rather just play a troll?

[@enjoythesho1992]

@@jhconjr The car has 250k miles on it for one it would cost more than its worth to "restore" and third I've been in the car game for a long time not a f***ing troll I know car values and what they are worth it would not be a smart investment to restore it but I'm sure to a big baller like you it would be chump change right lol

[@jhconjr]

@@enjoythesho1992 It may not be justifiable from a purely financial standpoint, but might be from a personal interest standpoint. I hope you have a better day. Until then, you might want to look up the definition of internet troll. Criticizing is easy with the anonymity of the internet, but is ultimately self harming. Are you aware the guys on this channel have been open about their emotional struggles? One of the reasons I like this channel. Take care of yourself (no satire or condescension stated or implied).

@Thor Odin son doesn't matter how much they gave for it the price to restore it is the same lol .....your definition of "restore" and mine must be completely opposite but hey I'm sure you restore cars all the time right

[@ROXSTARCorvette4371]

Outstanding job on the car. I'd love to see it back on the road.

[@markcarter9476]

My B5 S4 has just passed the 300,000 mile mark. It is my daily driver and has been ultra reliable, never letting me down in 19 years of ownership. I always feel that those that say the B5 S4 is unreliable have probably turned the $@*& out of it and therefore over stressed the engine, drivetrain, etc. Just enjoy it for what it is. Probably already said by others but the bag that emerges from the rear seats is a ski bag. This was an option.

[@pumpkinslap]

im sure someone has already said it but the back seat center tube is the skit boot, you put your ski's into it. normally people don't pull them out as they are a pain to get stuffed back in neatly and nicely.

[@duckyHsGaming]

Also in addition, I followed a fun leather cleaning tip, as usual do a test spot. But using Soft Scrub (bleach free) cleaner does a really good job buffing out stains on leather. Acts like a fine polish with grit. Worked well on my old Camry DLX before I sold it. 👍

Always one of my dream cars when I was younger, picked up an 01’ A4 1.8T and GIAC chipped it in 2000 but lusted after an S4 in nogaro blue. The Santorin blue this one is painted in is nice but Nogaro is still one of the my favorite paint colors of all time . Amazing cars then and still very cool today.

[@edwarddunk2731]

[@dwaveryn]

You're so right about how taking care of a car will make it last longer. I have two older Mercedes (2004 & 2009) and I constantly get comments about how expensive they must be to repair. I haven't had a single major repair on either of them because I get them serviced regularly and deal with any potential issues before they become problems. Both my cars perform and look much newer than they are.

[@mancsblue]

The sleeve in the arm rest in the back is for when you go snowboarding or skiing you can run your skies or snowboard threw it so you don't get the inside of the car wet and can you do a part to so we can see if it we'll run and or what it we'll take to do so. I have a silver b5 s4. 132k miles and full stage 3 just done over the winter. Getting ready to dyno tune it in the next few weeks. Love B5s

That Thing in the Middle at 12:00 is a Ski-Sack. There is a Smaal Door from the Trunk in the middle, to reach the Ski through the middle of the car. That Sack prevented the Water to get inside the cabin. This car was designed to get in the snowy mountains with your skis and friends to have some fun ;) I have an S4 B5 aswell, but the Avant version (Station Wagon) and I love this thing.. 292'000 km on it ;)

[@Brock_Landers]

Dude...I would freaking LOVE to have one of these cars! The 2.7 twin turbo V6 was a beast at 261 HP and could rocket the car from 0-60 in 5.5 seconds. Those engines were notoriously unreliable, but it looks like someone took good care of this one. Other than the normal leprosy of the clearcoat, it looks like this one lived a fairly normal life.
