convertible top issue
I have a 03 a4 convertible and the girlfriend borrowed it to move out of apartment. Once I got the car back, the top wont go down. I am able to put it down manually, but not automatically. The information display says "soft top cannot be used". I checked the fuse and it is good, and there is nothing in the way. Is there a reset anywhere? I really dont want to visit the stealership. Can any one help?

Try using your key (located in the glove box) and manually close and lock it. Now open it all the way and use your key to lock it down in the open position. You have to insert the key though a hole between the back seats, pull down the armrest and reach up and you will find the key hole. Once its all locked down in the open position, try using the button again. If it doesn't work, something is wrong with the operation of the top and needs service.
