Well,

I think my patience paid off. A couple of weeks ago I finally found my replacement Audi: A CPO 2006 B7 A4 Avant with MT6. Overall, I'm very pleased. The car came with the factory 'Technology package' which includes RNS-E Navigation Plus and bluetooth phone connectivity.

I am still trying to assess the quality of the audio. It certainly isn't mindblowing....it's decent but may lack the clarity of a higher end system. I would also like some iPod connectivity and I am willing to sacrifice the CD changer in the glove compartment.

Can anyone suggest a suitable audio upgrade path that will not jeopardize the CPO warranty? Perhaps you could also recommend a car audio shop in the Bay Area/Northern California.

Look to the mObridge company to find your "OEM" style Ipod interface, as well as audio out for external amplifiers.

The mObridge product should not interfere with the warranty as the engineers for mObridge DESIGNED the MOST system that is found in the newer Audi. In fact, Rector Motors, a bay area Audi dealer stands behind the mObridge product so much that they are an authorized dealer.

actually, not that I look MOST didn't come in the A4 until 2008
