Yes, it’s frustrating.

It should be there: car>vehicle settings>central locking. Well, it is on mine 2018 A4.

Just to say that this forum is great. I was all prepared to shell out £100 to renew my Audi Connect and then remembered this thread. A quick email to Audi and they renewed my licence for another 12 months free of charge. Usually Audi tend to bleed me dry.

I also have a saloon in scuba blue. Agree that it looks beautiful after a good clean and polish.

Agreed, my V6 is smooth at idle. Overall it’s a great car - relaxed at motorway speeds but also fun to drive when conditions allow.

I mostly do long distance motorway journeys in fast flowing traffic. The Audi chap’s theory was that my car was hanging about on the way from the factory in Germany which damaged the battery. I have no idea whether this is a credible theory or not.

Good news! I'm now sat in Cardiff Audi who have committed to change the battery under warranty. Despite some of the horror stories on this forum, Audi customer service in this instance couldn't be better - I am suitably relieved as wasn't looking forward to shelling out several hundred (?) on...

£370 for 1st service (18k) charged by Cardiff Audi for 3.0L V6 A4, 272 Quattro. Will go independent for the next service.

I have a 272 and do long weekly motorway journeys, c20k per year. The car is fantastic for this - it takes a while to warm up but thereafter it cruises effortlessly and with adaptive cruise control activated, the drive is relaxing, even through rush hour traffic. Fuel economy is superb - this...

I previously owned Land Rovers with very soft suspension. When I bought my Audi with sports suspension, I really struggled with back pain for several weeks - not helped by ‘uncomfortable seats’. Now several months later, I love it - so it depends what you’re used to and what type of driving...
