Replying to: barryend (Apr 23, 2009 7:49 pm) Nothing is wrong with the summer only tires -- in summer. During temps that drop below 45, the summer tires are not "Ultra High Performance." Moreover, they have a lifespan of under 20K miles and I simply do not want to swap out the tires twice a year. The UHP A/S's are a compromise (but not THAT much) -- but I do not track the car. I also like tires to wear at least 25,000 mile before replacement. The 19" option seriously reduces your choices of tires -- perhaps the 18" option is (or would have been) more prudent. In any case, I am offering up answers regarding ADS if someone has a question or wants a bit of a discussion on its merits.

I took delivery of an A4 B8 2009 model in February 2009. When I went to check the oil level via the MMI the other day, I received a message stating that the information was not available for display at this time. Can anyone suggest how to have the MMI display the oil level like it used to?

| Was told that in order to get the color Red, you must get the sport package (and that the residual goes down with the sports package). Does anyone know for sure if Red is only available if you get the sport package? Doesn't say anything in the booklets or the website, but was told this by dealer. | |
| ...how long it is to get a factory ordered Audi? Also, when is the switch to the new model year production? | |

Replying to: markcincinnati (Apr 25, 2009 7:33 am) I forgot to mention that I had been driving the car for around 45 minutes before trying to read the oil level so the engine had been warmed up. I have followed the instructions given in the user manual regarding warming the engine, parking on a level surface, turning off the engine for approx 2 minutes etc. but all to no avail. What is particularly frustrating is that the car doesn't even come with a manual dipstick to allow you to check the oil level, so I am at a loss to know what to do other than contact the dealer. I just thought there might be an easy fix.

I believe it takes about 3 months from order to delivery. I ordered a 2010 A4 2.0 Quattro Prestige yesterday and am anticipating delivery mid-late July according to the dealer. Any new orders will be 2010-I think 2009 is built out at this time. Can't wait--took my time deciding but after taking a long drive in the BMW 335 yesterday I am happy with my decision. Of course it means I am stuck with the M35x for another three months but my wife can drive it.

Replying to: art234 (Apr 26, 2009 6:23 am) Anyone have window tinting advice? NY only allows 70% front and back side windows. |

Barry, I do not recommend tinting at all...I find the windows as is are good enough. In NY, many police officers just like to bust horns over the tint--why expose yourself? That said, congrats--and let me know how you like the car!
