Re: 2009 "Bulid your own" & pricing now available
I got an '09 brochure from the dealer last week and based on the printed material, it appears that the S-Line interior/exterior package is only available on the 4.2.
If true, that's disappointing...

Since your car is an '08, it should be well within the manufacturer's warranty of 4 years or 50,000 miles.
An item like the HID headlight MUST be covered...unless of course there is some...

Try it this way...
On main homepage, use right side navigation menu and click on "Build Your Audi", should launch the configuration page and you can select the A6.
Good luck!

I've used STS in Ridgewood with very good results.
Also can recommend Euro Tire in Fairfield on Rt. 46, seems lots of Porsche and BMW guys use them.

Wow...brutal residual!

It's also like depreciation insurance
You are correct that the market rate of depreciation is built into the lease for the car, hence why the S550 4matic I ordered for lease has a residual of 57% (based on 36 months, 12,000 miles a year)...

The jerky 2-3 shift is pretty typical I'm afraid
