Default Radio station drifting?

Has anyone else had the problem of the radio station changing after you get back into the car?
(Bose '00) I've had my A4 for only a month and it has happened a half a dozen times. When I get back into the car the radio station has drifted just barely off of the preset.
Is this a know problem on the '00 Symphony-Bose?

Default Yes, I have the same problem and some others - write it down and tell your service advisor

If enough people make Audi aware of this problem, it will get fixed.

Here's my radio (Symphony, non-Bose) problems:
After shutting off car with radio on, when I restart the radio station is one frequency notch higher (ie shut off with 97.1, turns on with 97.3)

Balance, fader, treble, bass (each independantly) mysteriously move to Right, Rear, High, High, respectfully

Display on radio flashes off for ~1 second and then back on

When playing CDs, CD jumps to the next track while in the middle of the previous track

Display on trip computer sometimes goes completely black while playing CDs (will be on when beginning the CD, but go off sometime while still listening to the CD)

Good luck,

I had this for a short while but now the radio (Bose) has "settled down".

Default Have the same problem

Seems to happen when you leave your radio on when you shut off the car, adn then restart. It moves up one frequency on the dial.

I have a '00 1.8T w/ the Bose, and all the exact same problems - is this currently repairable?
