    A4 avant 2003 brake lights randomly on.

    Thank, I am waiting on a glove box dampner comming in at the stealers so when they give me a fone i will add a brake switch to my order. And if I notice the problem again I will change the switch.

    A4 avant 2003 brake lights randomly on.

    thanks kite. would this faulty brake switch still operate in this manor when ignition is off? I did have water damage to relays etc a while back under the hood! So hope it is as simple as a brake switch?

    Car just died. Oil light!

    hi, thanks. no i dont think they are standard i may be wrong but the a3 tow eye threads seemed to be bigger than the a4. I think i might need to get an a4 around the 2003 year as the a4 tow eye i got was from a 2009 saloon.
