Yikes you just bought this car? I would take it back to complain! Bad pixels are common on the instrument cluster. Unfortunatly nothing you can do to fix it. You'll have to replace the cluster. Same goes for the climate control afaik. Usually if you input the radio code in too many times it just locks you out for an hour or so. Not sure why it is being a pain.

Ok after a stop at the Audi dealer i found out that i need a new radio because my is locked up. What kind of idiots make a cdplayer that not even there staff cant fix. So now im looking for a new cd player. as for the heat in the car i have to get a new climate control unit. i opend the cd player and i found out that whoever had that car before they spilled coffe on the cd player and the climate unit so everything short out. else the car is nice. not bad for a 13k odometer A4 2000. Lets hope by next week its fixed. i also wrote audi an email about there stupid cd player safe rools. ok i get the point but your staff has to be able to reprogram the dam cd player.
