RE: Car Running warm - Help!

I find it strange that both needles, oil and water, would shoot to normal as soon as the car is switched on after it sat all night. Is this still the case? Should only behave in such fashion if you've been driving, shut off and within a short while start it up again. Would be interested to know your...

Is the K&N panel filter for B5-S4 the same for B5-RS4?

I'm looking for the proper details to buy one, i.e K&N part number. I have searched but just found general references. I can buy it in the US or here in Europe. If in the US, I know how to order (if it's the same as that for the S4).

Thanks in advance.

This is probably more noticeable when you have cruise control on, if I understand what you're describing. With autopilot when the car accelerates and lets off the shifter will move back (decelerating) and forward (accelerating). I'd say it is normal.

Where to get OE pads or good alternatives w/wear sensor

I've already searched for pads in the forum, read for a couple of hours, and the suggestions for VAGParts or others don't show pads for the B5 RS4...or I don't know how to search... Please let me know on-line details of where I can get pads (front & back) as I already have the light on and definitel...

RE: Sync logo on dash clock...gone missing?

I have another clue: If the ignition is off and I turn on the NAV, I will have the Time option available under settings to adjust if my time zone changes, but when I turn the ignition, the option will disappear from the display and I cannot change the time in the RNS. Either way the dash is not comm...

RE: vag-com in switzerland?

You can also look into VAD (http://www.vadmobile.com/index.htm). If you have a PDA (plus proper cable) you're set. Ross is a good option as well as mentioned by Paul; it is indeed the best money you can spend.

RE: vag-com in switzerland?

Sportec garage may be an option. They're close to the airport. I have VAG but cannot check anything else. I just use it for peace of mind before I take it to the garage...to avoid 'misscomunication'...

Sync logo on dash clock...gone missing?

There is generaly a small antena graphic to the left of the clock indicating time sync via GPS. Does it appear ocasionaly or all the time? I ask because I recall seeing it quite frequently and now it's gone.
