2003 model, but considering the year is almost up, and I am not quite
ready to purchase one yet, it might end up being a 2004 model.
So, anything in particular to watch out for? Obviously, if the seller

My remote key batteries died and I see that the batteries in it were

I need to get a new instrument cluster for my 2000 Audi A4.  My local
dealer in the Caribbean wants about $US2000 for a replacement.
My cluster number is 8D0 920 932G. It is calibrated in Kilometers and

It came on and stayed on solid Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

curious...anyone know if 19 in wheels will fit on a new 2006 Audi A4?

My low-beam head lights and turn signals are suddenly not working.   They
worked last night, and stopped when I cranked the car this morning.  I've
