Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
I just got off the phone with Autobahn, and they have all the parts I'm looking for: cabin air filter, fuel filter, and wiper blades. I'll be stopping by friday morning to pick up. The prices were better than I expected. It'll be nice to replace the fuel filter. There is a good DIY writeup on it on the Audizine. I want to take advantage of the good weather to do it.

You should check out Audizine from time to time. The B6 A4 thread is hugely entertaining and the DIY section is good too. Have fun. DIY: B6 A4 - Fuel Filter Replacement - Audizine

I just got in from completing the fuel filter swap. It was pretty easy. Just follow the instructions in the thread and you'll be ok. Let me know how the swap goes for you.

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
I FOUND THE ACTION IN EDMONTON!!!!
At my house!!!
My car got broken into it: NICE CITY! I live in Glenora... on Sunday morning!
Some idiots pryed the window out with a screwdriver, damaged the door frame, scratched the heck out of everything, smashed the window, and stole a GPS craddle and its cable!
They missed the nearly $100 in twonies in the ashtray!!!
I am sure they are still scratching their heads trying to figure out why the door locks would not unlock!
Called the cops... might as well have called the Space Cadet Academy... I had to drive the car as it was to them... all the patrol cars were in the parking-lot... only two officers in the West main station...
To make me love the city even more, the (only) dealer (Southgate) wants to book me for an estimate in 2 weeks... BOOKINGS FOR ESTIMATES?!
The repairs would be done in September or October... What kind of a backwards place is this?!
But I had good news: FixAUTO can start the repairs at the end of August or early in September... Makes me wish I am anywhere else other than in Edmonton!!!
Therefore I am buying a window, install it myself and then drive the car to a reputable shop in Toronto and get the rest of the damage fixed!
A bit peeved...

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
I'm so sorry to hear that. In Glenora of all places! I tell ya, some peoples' kids. Just pull the door handles twice. Nice feature. Do you have pics.
About Southgate; they're not the best, but since they're the only Audi dealer in the city, they can corner the market as they like. That's why I go to the independents for parts and service. Or I'll do it myself. Where is FixAuto? I hope it all works out.
