Default driver side "doorway" buttons?

anyone knows what are the two buttons on driver side doorway?

the upper one seems to be the back truck release, but mines doesn't work. the lower one looks like the "wireless" sign in networking, but i bet it's nothing related to that. any idea?

HAHAH...well i was the culprit wasnt i a few months ago when I asked the same question?

well Mr. AudiChan...just remember DO NOT, I REPEAT do not press that button. Last time someone did (me) i apparently set off a time bomb in Ohbw's car. UGHHH

ne ways helmets and flak jackets are definitely a good idea. It is a home link to a satellite that monitors illegal activity on audis and detonates it.

you are wearing a full contamination suit and have checked with your insurance co that you are covered for acts other than those of God.
Oh and never ask why your rear cigarette lighter doesnt work either-similar problem

Hi, by the way, i thought my trunk release had stopped working the other day and discovered that "if" the glove box is locked, it disables the trunk release......so if yours dont work, maybe check that out ;o)

Default I'd still like to say, RTFM!

Then if you can't find it, ask here. But I'm sure the answer to this one is in there.

thx guys... i remember the truck release used to work, but i might have messed with my glove box when fixing some wiring on a custom DVD player install.

anyway, i'll go check tomorrow... hopefully that's it. it's been so inconvenient to have to use key only for the back trunk.

i dun have a owner's manual... wanna buy one on eBay, but was all in DVD format?! i prefer a paperback more... any advice where to buy a manual except dealership?
