dangerous -- problem:
1. The left headlight flickers
2. It then turns itself off
3. The message "left dipped headlight" appears
4. The message is changed to a sign indicating that the lightbulb has
failed.
If I turn the light...

A4 Oil Usage by
dph
My wife has a 1999 A4 3.0 that seems to use a lot of oil. She
relisiously follows servicing Audi recommendations but has found that
between servicing she can be down as much as 2 qts. of oil. The Audi
service rep said that is normal and not to worry. She is worried that
this is excessive. Is it?

2002 A4 - Headlights & Dash Lights by
Bill Klein
Hi all,
Recently acquired a 2002 A4 and am very happy with it so far.
One thing that's been driving me slightly nutty though, is turning on
the headlights at night. Unlike other cars that I have driven, the
dash lights do not seem to be tied at all to the headlights, so there
is no visual cue...

A6 1.8T Auto trace fault5 to failed throttle housing assembly by
Stuart
The car has an erratic idle, it hunts to find the normal idling speed and
then settles down.
57 quid poorer and the garage informs me that there is a
"trace fault5 to failed throttle housing assembly" and they need to replace
the whole module.
That would make me 690+57 quid poorer.
Does anyone...

is only for a second and then normal valve sound after that. The

ANT INVASION - HELP!! by

My A4 has been invaded by ants. Any ideas how to combat them? I started to
see just two or three of them on the door frame outside the rubber and I
thought it was just a coincidence and that they wouldn't find anything to
eat and would go away. That was some 4 weeks ago. Now, I've started to...
