So sad to say but looks like my b6 s4 bit the timing dust this morning. Very rough idle to quick kill and haven't tried starting up again. Car has 125k on the clock, stock timing components, and no other signs of timing issue then the "standard" cold start rattle for ~1 sec.
Other than this the car has been great. List of mods in sig. below and been keeping up on regular maintenance up to this point.
I currently have the JHM intermediate timing kit and all needed timing specific tools as well as a few extra gaskets. Was in middle of collecting parts to do a big engine pull/service before it died this morning.
Before I take the deep dive, anyone have interest in buying a project B6 S4 with timing parts/tools included?
Few more details: Black B6 S4 with multimedia package, brushed AL trim, blue alcantara recaros. I'm 3rd owner and have owned since 50k miles. All wheels/tires will be included with sale. Spotty maintenance records as I do all services myself but can include stack of receipts for all parts purchased. Have original window sticker and all booklets/packets from Audi. Clean title. Paint is okay for age and NE living but does have fair share of small scratchs, rock chips, and a small bubble of rust in 2 places. Driver's seat has small ripple, all other seats are in great condition with no stains. Rest of interior in great shape too.
Overall, it's been a fantastic car and very trouble free. Shoot an offer or give opinion on thoughts of sell/repair. Pretty sour at the moment.
