One of the two oem remotes died this weekend. I replaced the batteries to no avail. The remote worked fine (unlocked/locked on first press) prior to dying. The dealer said that it probably needs to be "reprogrammed" and I need to bring all four keys in and leave the car for at least a few hours - great....<p>Anyone have similar problem? What would cause this?<p>Chris

Supposedly the remotes do have to be reprogrammed after changing the batteries. The procedure for doing this is in the FAQ. However, I was unable to get it to work. At some point during the reprogramming, the alarm beeps. I got the beep, but when I was finished, the one remote still didn't work. The dealer ended up replacing both.<p>Kyle<p>PS. If the procedure in the FAQ is correct, it should only take your dealer 5 minutes.

Got the latest issue of C&D in the mail today, and they had a bunch of letters in response to the A4-328i comparison from a few months ago. I don't know if they were written by anyone from this board, but they were all well written and pro-Audi. Most were praising the real world attributes (Quattro, lower price) that the A4 has over the 328. <p>Tom Halter<br>98.5 2.8 QM Pearl/Onyx
