Yessir, it was on "Auto" on the A3, as well. Sorry for the possible noob question, but is "Auto" not the desired way of operation?

A/C temperature fluctuations - normal?

Wanted to confirm whether this is a design flaw or an actual defect with my car. On my A3, I'd set the temperature to 72 degrees and the car would do the "right thing" to keep me comfortable. On the...

Will 17" 245/45/17 rims from 2010 A4 fit?

Picked up a 2012 S4 yesterday and am starting to look for winter wheels. Came across a set of A4 wheels for $700 but am wondering if 17" wheels fit over the calipers. How can I find out?

I use the Escort 8500 X50 in two cars

Costs $250 online and works pretty well for me, although it would sometimes be nice to have bought the V1. This does the trick. Don't really get much false positives and haven't gotten a ticket since...
