2004 A4 missing from Owner's manual
I have a 2004 A4 Quattro 3.0 (premium and cold weather) that I just
purchased today. There were a few things I couldn't find in the
owners manual.
Anyone help?
1. There is a **** to the right of the headlight **** with two
settings "I" and "O". Anyone know what this is?
2. I read on Edmunds that all 2004 A4s come with tire pressure
monitoring. I didn't see anything about this? Is this really there?

Re: 2004 A4 missing from Owner's manual
Jeff,
The switch is for arming the ejection seat....
Start the car, put the headlights on, walk around it. Throw the switch,
walk around again. Notice anything different? Foglights? Rear Foglights?
Seat firing through roof?
The dealer will know.
For the tire pressure monitor, try taking one tire down about 10-15 psi and
driving around the block. Did a warning light come on?
The dealer will know that too - give 'em a call - make them earn that money
you gave them.
Cheers!

Re: 2004 A4 missing from Owner's manual
I and O mean on and off respectively in electrical Euro language.....so I
can only conclude it is doing something like switch on and off.
as for the tire pressure monitoring.......its been blown out of proportion.

Re: 2004 A4 missing from Owner's manual
Called my dealer. The service dept and the sales dept didn't know
what that small switch/**** is for. They said "something to do with
the auto headlights. I've tried both positions and it seems to work
the same.
I called Audi national customer service. They didn't know either.
They said to ask my dealer.
Funny when the manufacturer doesn't know....

Ok.. I figured #1 out. The dealer made up some story about it
changing the delay that it takes for the lights to come on when it is
dark outside. It isn't do this. If the **** is in the "I" position,
then the outside lights front and rear, stay on for a minute or two
after you get out of the car. If it is "O" then they turn off right
away.
Dealer says #2 is only on the S4.
