Audi A3 2006

Title: Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 FSI – Needs repair (taxed until end of July, '26) Vehicle Details: Make/Model: Audi A3 Sportback AMB 5-Door Engine: 1.6 Petrol FSI (115 BHP) Mileage: 205,025 km NCT: Expired Tax: Valid until 31st July 2026 Price: €450 ONO Description: Selling my Audi A3 Sportback which needs repair by a mechanic. The car is in good cosmetic condition overall with the highly useful 5-door Sportback layout. Known Issues (Fully Transparent List): Clutch / Gearbox Noise: There is a rattle from the transmission area. Note: This year/model uses a solid/single-mass flywheel (not a dual-mass), so the noise is likely a worn clutch release bearing or input shaft bearing. It needs a fresh clutch kit fitted. Front Suspension Noise: There is a loud, spring-like sound when turning the steering wheel to full lock on either side. This points to a seized strut top mount bearing or a worn front coil spring. Driver's Window and rear passenger window: The driver's window moves just a tiny fraction up and down when the switch is pressed but won't fully open. The motor and wiring are getting power perfectly, so it just needs a replacement mechanical window regulator unit, which you can get from a breakers. The same issue is starting to show in rear passenger window, so that window regulator unit will probably need replacing as well, if not immediately, soon enough. Side mirror cracked: the driver's side mirror is cracked, as you can see in the picture. Emissions: it went down on emissions at the last NCT. Tyres: Passed the last test on advisories. It's a really nice car to drive and if you fix the above issues and put it through the NCT, it should be very good value. It comes with a working and installed Bluetooth car radio: Alpine CDE-133BT (the original Audi car radio is in the boot.
