New Audi Owner (A3) Here
Hi everyone, my wife and I just got our 2009 A3 2.0T, 6 speed manual with premium and xenon package.
So far we absolutely love the car. It's our first Audi/VW product after having owned a fair number of other brands.
I have a couple of questions I was hoping could be answered here:
1) Are we able to scroll through our radio station presets using the steering wheel controls? When we try now it simply scans to the next available station. Thus far we have only been able to toggle through our presets either by hitting the buttons directly beside the display or the left and right arrow keys beside the CD slot.
2) Our car did not come with the roof spoiler, does anyone have recommendations for buying one that won't break the bank?
Thanks in advance!

Re: New Audi Owner (A3) Here
Well if anyone cares I haven't been able to find any way to make this work. As best I can tell, you cannot cycle through your radio station presets via the steering wheel mounted audio controls.
I have another question: I've linked my wife's Blackberry Bold to the car via Bluetooth, and the first few times it loaded her phone book. Now it is saying there are no entries and when I tell the Bold to send the contact list it's giving an error message. Is there a way to prompt the car to pull the phone book?

Re: New Audi Owner (A3) Here
After a lot of online research and some trial and error I've managed to get the contacts working again. Thankfully (sort of), this appears to be a fairly wide problem with Audi's and Blackberry's around the world so it wasn't just us.
