Hi,

New to the site. I have received great advice from many of you, so I decided to register to help fellow audi drivers.

I have owned an 84 Audi 4000s, 99 A4 Avant, 02 Audi TT, and currently own and drive an 01 Allroad 2.7T, 6 sp man, Nav, Cold and warm weather package, etc. It has been a great car for last 5 years, and it jsut turned 100k. It has been acting up recently. Here is what I have learned or currently experiencing .

CV Boots torn - replaced these because I ignorded the problem on my 83 VW Jetta and eventually broke an axel.
Turn signal clicking. I sprayed wd-40 into the turn signal arm and it corrected the problem.
Yes, the left front suspension sags when parked for several hours, but only when left in the lowest position, not in any other position however.
Warm weather package not working properly- solar sun roof is supposed to circulate interior vents and keep car cool, but recently stopped circulating. - No answer yet.

This has been a great car otherwise. great ride, plenty of room for golf bags, luggae. great accelration. outstanding handling, espcially in challenging weather conditions. I do reccomend this car, but opt for an extended warrranty if offered.

welcome, I didn't even know the Allroads had a solar sunroof, thats cool. Hopefully you can get the little things fixed and have a sweet little Audi again.

also if you post your solar panel question in the allroad forums you might get a better response then the general welcome forum.
