George, so far I haven't had the need to invest in the cable myself. Since all I wanted to do for now was enable voice command, I'm good to go. Unless a dealer wipes it out during a service, I...

I know that Audi of Tysons generally gets hate on the Mid-Atlantic forums both here and over at Audizine, but I have nothing but good things to say about Joseph Jay there. I wouldn't deal with...

I think the numerical volume indicator is a relatively recent add. I don't recall having it on my pre-facelift S4. It's there on my new RS5, though.

If I pull the trigger, I'm happy to help. And that's way too generous an offer. I'll just pay forward the favor that was done for me.

I actually found somebody over on Audizine willing to meet up and do the activation for me. That said, I may bite the bullet and buy my own cable. This isn't my first Audi, it probably won't be my...

First off, congratulations.

I've been using the tri-fold seat protectors that were mentioned above in my S4, and they seem to do a decent job of preventing grooves in the leather. If I need to...

That's because TCCC is far and away the WORST collision center. I've had nothing but bad experiences there, all of which have resulted in money coming back to me.

OP, keep in mind that you don't...

I'm not a huge fan of the diamond stitching. I prefer the two-tone seats with contrasting stitching in my S4. My wife really liked it, though. And I didn't think the color matched too well with...

This is exactly what I have seen. Sometimes, if you're stopped in just the right spot, the ambient light sensor can't quite figure out what to do, so it appears to blink.

Same here, as a stop gap measure. I'm waiting for the Audi OEM mats that either say S4 or have the Audi Sport logo on them.

We replaced my wife's slightly more than a year old 335xi coupe (AKA "the crapmobile") with a Q5 in August to accommodate our newborn. Then we replaced my 2007 S4 with a 2010 S4 in November.
