I recently bought a 2007 convertible w 50k, car is awesome , one thing I can't figure out, none of the windows work, on either door, the switch lights up but nothing ? and power door locks either. I tried to lower the top however it says soft top not available , is that cause windows have to go down ? any help would really be appreciated especially with the windows
I've checked every fuse on the panel on side of dash and there all good
thanks in advance

Sorry to hear that you bought an Audi. The 2.0 Direct injection motor is probably one of the worse built. I learned the hard way. Your lucky if it is still running and I recommend after fixing your electrical problems to sell it and not buy another. The direct injection systematically is made to fail. the fuel is sprayed directly into the cylinders and does not pass over the intake valves as on normal fuel injected cars. With the Positive Crankcase Ventilation pushing the dirty crankcase fumes over the intake valve causes carbon build up that causes the engine to misfire and fail. by not having fuel sprayed over the intake valve to clean it it is inevitable that you may need to have the valves cleaned by taking off the intake.
