Default My Lo-Tone Horn is Out........AGAIN...grrrr.

Either QC has taken a back seat or Audi badly designed the thing. I've had my car less than a year.

My dealer also had to order a clutch pressure switch 3 different times in order to get a replacement that worked right.

Grrrrr...x2

Lo-Tone, the farty sound after you arm the alarm? And this is a bad thing? Wish it was mine.

Default Yep, and it's so strange that it chirps from the trunk area.. I guess they hid it back there? :)

Because, you know, it's so loud that a thief would just have to silence it right away.. ugh.

Default I bet 90% of you have a failed horn and don't realize it

I replaced my first horn after 3 months, and I am certain that it has failed again.

Problem is, with the low-tone failed, we sound like a typical Japanese car, and don't realize what it is supposed to sound like.

I am almost due for my 15,000km check, will get a new horn.
