Any harm in this?

I live at the top of a fairly long hill. Sometimes when as I'm leaving my garage I'll put my diesel A7 in neutral and just let the engine idle and warm up while I coast for a 1/2 mile or so. Then...

Freeing up Nav screen space

I searched on this and came up with nothing. I don't like seeing the upcoming turns and services box on my nav screen. I've gone (I think) top to botttom in the Nav settings to try and disable it but...

I have noticed a small amount of wind noise at 70+mph. Seems to come mostly from the top of the drivers window (I assume because of how it seals?). It's pretty faint but I have noticed it.

No longer perfect - key'd at the airport

Scott, there are plenty of mean-spirited people out there. That hasn't changed.

I strongly recommend doing fotos of the damage so you can show the next owner that it was minor scratches that...

The "diesel fuel" sticker on your dash

In case any of you TDI owners are considering taking the diesel-only sticker off your beautiful dash trim, consider this a public service announcement. I originally thought it was a lightweight...

(Barely) heated steering wheel

Hey guys. I have a 14 A7 TD I that I am loving. One first world problem I'm noticing is the heated steering wheel is quite lame. My wife's 12 grand Cherokee heats up like you're415-341-0204 holding a...

Nice car by the way! Mine...
