    Rear Cigarette Lighter Socket - Lid has lost its "snap".

    :search: Does anyone know how easy it would be to sort out the spring loaded snap lid on the rear cigarette socket in the boot of the A4 Avant? Just thinking, the way it is at the moment, when loading stuff into the boot, the lid will be loose down and probably accidentally (unwantedly) get...

    Early Happy Bithday wishes to you M7R. I'm currently 3 years away from the supposed mid-life crisis (aka. 37 yrs. The Harley's parked round the back of the garage, ready for that "It's just something I gotta do" speech to my wife... :thrashi:(joke!) :laugh: Nyaahh.... the A4's more than good...

    M7R, Thanks.. you've just confirmed that I'm definitely getting old. :laugh: Such is life. Love the car so far. My intention is to keep this one and run it into the ground. Next stop.... iPod dock.

    M7R, Just a thought.... with a bit more weight, do you reckon the A4 would hold the road better than the A3? (Understood that it may not be as fast). Thinking about things like cornering etc.

    Many thanks again M7R. I thought so. As we drove the condensation vanished. In the A3 it was automatic. Cheers for clearing that up. It's the getting used to the subtle differences.

    Quattrojames, A very good site. I never knew people could get this much info. :hi:Thank you. You have made me stumble across something (perhaps for a different forum). I have included in my Audi A4 the code: 6XD = Exterior mirrors: electrically adjustable/heated But this (cold) morning...

    Audi A4 2.0 TDI (140 PS) SE Avant

    Thanks quatrojames and M7R for your replies, M7R I know what you mean. I can feel (and I guess I miss) the pulling away power of having 170 PS. 30 bhp doesn't sound much but lets just say when it comes to making a quick move off from 0-mph you can feel the car not giving the "juice" you were...

    Ok... so time is pushing on and I've moved from my Audi A3 2.0 TDi (170 PS) to my now Audi A4 2.0 TDI (140 PS) SE Avant and so far I like it. Sounds like a step down? I hope not in the eyes of others. Has done 70k miles and is in very good conditon. Just need a little help or a link about...

    HELP!! Symphony II to Symphony II+ Strange Radio Problem

    Hi everyone!! Sorry but I have been away from the forums for a long while (moving home, Credit Crunch, cutting costs of living etc.) Just to say (sadly) that I had to settle for keeping the original radio Symphony II and selling the Symphony II+ that I bought. I had an iPod dock in the Audi...

    Age of A3 drivers

    Try nearing 36! Not so depressing though. Experience that gets gathered over the years can be a wondeful thing.... However I choose at times not to act my ideal mental age. Keeps the fun in life. :happy:

    TDI 140 and 170 owners please post your MPG

    With the ever rising fuel prices (especially for us Oil Burners), I am finding that not "hammering it" down the motorways and just going a little more slowly in 6th Gear doing about 2,000 revs, I'm getting about 50 mpg on average which I'm very impressed with. Because when I first got my A3 I...
