Hey all, I just picked up the above titled Audi, my first. Black on black, auto, saloon, loaded, only 69k miles. Would've preferred the Avant with a manual, but that's apparently extremely rare, and I needed a car as I'd just smashed my poor mini to bits - this one had a low price due to some scratches in the paint so I jumped on the low mileage car.
Anyhow, I'm looking forward to perusing the forum for critical bits of knowledge, I plan on doing a lot of lurking. Of course, the previous owner screwed a few things up that I'll need to spend some time unf**king. The list of things immediately on my plate is as follows:
-Replacing the tail lights, as PO did a terrible glue-on "blackout" mod.
-Removing the awful radio transmitter "aux-in" that has made every other radio station unusable.
-Adding a proper Bluetooth module to the Sat Radio so I can make phone calls and listen to music.
-Replacing the destroyed center armrest.
-Replacing a burned-out headlamp.
-Changing all fluids. (SOP for new used cars, for me)
-K&N in-box air-filter.
Anything else I should add to my list? Eventually I may want to replace the head and tail light assemblies with some sharp-looking and brighter LED ones, but from everything I've read the only ones available are both complete junk and many don't fit the Quattro, so I may just be sticking with the stock lights, provided I can find adequate replacements for the rears.
Any recommended reading material would be quite appreciated, I'll pop back with a picture soonish.
Cheers,
Kris
