I'm Gonna Be a PIA!
Sorry Guys and Gals, but I'm probably going to have a lot of stupid questions, but its not intentional. I'm an Englishman living in Moscow, Russia and have just recently bought an Audi 8 4.2, she is a 99 model just coming up to a 100,000 Kms and I love her, but she was originally imported from Germany and all the documentation including the owners handbook are in German which I can't read. So, although I will do a lot of searches on my own I would be grateful for the following information or pointers to where I can find it please: -
1. Can I buy an Englsih Handbook from somewhere for this vehicle or is there a PDF format I can download?
2. I need to change the tires (summer ones) she is currently on Dunlop 225/60 ZR16 98W. My supplier doesn't have them here in Moscow and has suggested Michelin Primacy as a replacement. Has anyone anything against this choice?
3. I thought I was clever enough to change the time on the clock by holding the two buttons down together (and I did), but now it is always 2 hours slow (probably CET) and I can't change it to the correct time! I seem to have a little radio antenna signal next to the time.
4. There are two buttons in the drivers door panel, one is meant to open the trunk (boot for us Brits) which doesn't work and the other is for what?
5. I have no CD Rom for the GPS system, does anyone know if I can get a CD Rom that covers Moscow? I know that software exists for Moscow on handheld GPS
6. I'd like to update the CD (6 disc) changer to something that will play MP3. Can anyone recommend something that is just a straight swop?
Sorry for all the questions in one go and I will now go off and browse and search and see what I can find myself.
Cheers.
