My rear seats don't flip down, I have bags in the boot. I heard something about using a 9volt battery and my fuse box. Have you or know anyone that have heard anything like this?

In essence you're hijacking this thread. You should post your question in a different thread so that you'll get more answers. Post it in another thread and I'll answer your question as I'm sure many others here will.

I apologize wasn't my intent, new to the forum. I will take your advice and post to a different thread. Thank you.

Audi makes great cars and admittedly they are not perfect (no car manufacturer is) but for the money, the prestige and build quality is second to none in my opinion.

Good luck and enjoy your ride and might I suggest..... Take it to an empty parking lot on a snowy slippery day, turn off traction control and do some doughnuts. HAVE FUN WITH IT
Thanks! We may get snow this weekend. I look forward to learning doughnuts with quattro.
cheers,
Jim

Looks like we have nearly the same car! Thanks for the offer. Do you attend the local Audi club meetings? I've never been, but meant to go last month. Alas, something came up.
cheers

No, I haven't been to a club meeting before which is fairly sad considering I live less than 5min away from where they meet. Like you say, seems like something always comes up.

Maybe we'll catch up this month.
