Hello All....
Please advise on the following for A4 quattro 2007 leased , silver exterior/black interior....

1) Can you please share info on getting carpet floormats at decent prices (around $50)? Which color will suit the black interior?
2) The seatbelt alarm is noisy...LOL...Any way to turn it off?
3) Sometimes the ride seems to be too firm ( no sports suspension though). Is there way to have a smooth ride?
4) When do you guys use the 'S' mode instead of 'D' mode in auto transmission ? Any hit on the mileage?

Thanks in advance.

1) good luck finding nice floor mats for $50, any nice one's with an Audi logo cost $90-$100+
2) seat belt alarm may be able to be turned off with vag com (dont count on the dealer doing this)
3) check your tire pressure
4) probably.. changes shift points so it waits to upshift longer which will eat up more gas.

 

1. wal-mart - black ( it did not come with floor mats??)
2. find someone with a vag-com to turn it off - or ask the dealer?
3. different shocks-spring combination. or coilovers
4. since the S mode button increase the lead concentration of the drivers right foot by 73% your gas mileage goes down. j/k It raises the shift points so you engine runs at a higher RPM, thus burning more gas.

 

1) I got floor mats for 90$ just for the front, and I didnt buy them... my dad did so the drivers side has my gay initials in it (apparently ima rapper) but there high grade mats and I love them, even has a spot to support my foot near the gas pedal.
2) Don't know of anyway to do that besides the ones provided above
3) Id also say check the tire pressure, unless your willing to spend money to change this
4) Regular drive will always get more gas mileage, it keeps the RPM's low and allows for a smooth ride, if you put it into 'S' mode it will kick up the RPM's and hold them higher allowing for easier accerlation, but in return this will use more gas mileage and is just uneeded unless your towing something or going up a steep mountain
