i hate it when people give stupid answers like that instead of helping,

i dont know of many specifics but i know there is alot you can do wither with the dealer, if you have a good relationship or you get yourself a vag-com cable and software that uses a laptop to change settings inside the computers, the one i really want is to change my fogs to driving lights,

just search for vag-com you should get some good stuff, ive posted a few times asking about some of the things you can do and gotten some good answers

I just had my roll-windows-up/down-with-the-remote programmed by a friend... Wow is that cool. But I'm easily amused.

thank for the replies. the Ross Tech cable is our hundred dollars. YIKES! I can't decide between the Audi A4 and the Acura RL both 2006. The Acura is very technology forward (gadgets), but I know with german car the technology is hidden (ie on my mom E you can have the sun roof close when it rains by itself. not published some service advisers know about it only on certain vehicles imported to us).

Stuff like that in the audi a4 is their a forum for this already?

The sunroof can open all the way when you turn the dial to around 5-6 o'clock position.

LOL actually took me a month to figure that one out. At first I was dissapointed that it didnt open all the way then one day I was pissed and twisted the *** all the way and BOOM it opened all the way. Technology these days.
