Quick fix, remove your Radio Fuse and plug it back in. Unit will reboot itself.

Default I f you have an '02/'03 A4 you get a free radio....see your dealer.....

there was an issue with these radios and they replace them without any hassle and it takes less than an hour to replace it. The pull the fuse fix is worth a try but it usually is only a temporary fix.

You also better have your radio security code to make the radio work again...
