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!

Replying to: art234 (Apr 26, 2009 6:23 am) I'm hoping to order my first Audi early this summer, so I'm curious about the process. |

To answer the questions, We ordered the car from the 2010 ordering guide. We don't have prices yet. We are estimating price, and we did negotiate a fixed cost over invoice, with all incentives to me. The prestige package now has navigation (3G MMI), but driver assist and the rear camera and park assist are removed and part of an optional package. I am estimating the cost of the car to be between $43 and $44K or so, and when it comes in I will review lease rates but actually plan to buy the car. I was in the car business for about 5 years previously, so knew basically how to negotiate, and the dealer and I understand each other... Now the wait begins...I am really looking forward to this car. |

What is an accurate source for Audi Financial Services' Buy Rate Lease Money Factor? I have found sources only for 15K mi/year. Thanks! |

Replying to: markcincinnati (Apr 24, 2009 4:58 am) My wife and I are looking at an '09 A4 Premium+ with the sport package only because we need the lumbar support it provides. We didn't like the jarring drive of the sport package and would really like something a tad softer (we already have a 2000 Jetta VR6 with a stiff ride). Does the adaptive drive really offer a softer ride if the sport package is taken and the drive is set to comfort ? Obviously I don't expect the drive to be as cushiony as say an ES 350 (the other car we were looking at).. Also, do you have any input on when we'll be able to build out a 2010 A4 ? I hear there are some option changes (eg: no driver memory in the Premium+) Thanks so much,
