When the variable intermittent switch is set to lowest that turns on the auto wipers, setting it to anything else makes them manual - I thought.

I have 130tdi and have had it since new and it is now 4.5yrs old. It is good for the price. I bought it because it had a big diesel engine in a small body. Great for economy. But it has quite high road noise, lack of grip and rattly trim. But it can't be that bad because I still have it...

A few seat people have used them - not read any bad comments yet.

Yup, you (well I did anyway) have a connector that goes in there and takes up all the space, but it is very bare. So you just poke all the wires of the new cable into the existing connector and plug it back in. 10min job (only takes that long because of paranoia of getting it wrong).

Not on mine, I had to insert the pins into the plug that was already there (I bought the audi cable).

40km/h over the limit and the french will now relieve you of your driving licence - so no more than 100mph.

It always amazes me to see how kids smaller than mine are just in booster seats. No idea whether the adults think they are protected enough like that.

TuffLittleUnit are you saying that your 4 year old is just on a booster? If so, I wouldn't personally be happy with that. Ours are in Britax Kid seats which give lateral support to their heads. It also came out highly in some consumer report when we bought them.

You do have a network connection. Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter, Copper RJ-45 is your network adaptor. It is an RJ-45 socket on your PC (an 8 pin socket).

www.roofbox.co.uk thule bars with Atera Giro bike racks. Also tried the tow bar mounted ones and on my A6 I thought the tow bar mounted one caused more wind noise. Watch out for actually getting small kids bikes to fit on any rack.

I have yet to get over 40mpg in my 2.5 tdi multitronic. I rarely got over 40mpg with my manual 2.5. With a bike rack on the roof and a bike rack on the rear (2 bikes on each) @ 80mph I got 28mpg. Some people must drive like grannies with some of the figures you seen on these forums.... I...

I have a 2.5tdi multi and I get 32-36mpg where my old 2.5tdi manual would do 35-38. I agree with the statement that you tend to accelerate harder in the multi and I think this is where it hurts the economy.

Just came back from France and nobody flashed me (old A6 had the levers, new one doesn't).

I have the Ck3000 and CK3100. I think the CK3100 is better just for the ease of upgrading the firmware! (laptop flash over BT). Both have good sound quality. My samsung phone requires you to manually accept the connection when the unit is powered.

Yeah but if you are buying a new TV now you need digital ENCRYPTED input if you are going to use HD Sky.
