Tourist solution is the setting in VCDS you enable to flatten the light pattern for use on the other side of the road. It takes seconds. I think the earlier D3s have a manual lever on the lights. It would be nice if they had the feature on the MMI.

oh yes, i think i have the lever that you cant get to without taking the engine out
its a little feature but it would be really nice to have it. i did see the port for the extra sim card, i thought it was either phone or wifi hotspot, probably does those as well. do you switch these online services on and off, it sounds like it uses a lot of data to be left on perfectly

You can switch the lights to "tourist option" using VCDS on the D3

would love the matrix lights, buying a D4 is a compormise, its difficult enough finding one with all the options you want, specially as the dealers put the fully loaded and great spec on everything and then list almost nothing.
means you have to phone up and ask about everything you want over and over, its quite tedious. then if you find one you have to make it there before everyone else, chances of it being local are quite low too.

Totally agree mate
I Had the same issue looking for mine and the one before. I like the sport models as they come with a good standard spec to start with, the seats are superb i cant put up with the standard ones they dont give enough thigh support imo. But when i started looking for a 4.2 finding a sport short wheel base was bloody hard, i could only find 4 and the price differences were eye watering. Audi also had started supplying the lwb in sport spec later in the model run. As for the fully loaded adverts the sodding dealers dont have a clue, although occassionally that can work in your favour if they dont know the value of certain options. I even contacted Audi for a spec breakdown on my car and they got it all wrong. Missing off things that i knew were fitted and were options. The only good news i had was it mentioned a service pack, so after a bit of digging i discovered the car has the optional service pack so all paid for for the next three years....no one told me though and i had to contact vw financial services to sort out the change of owner....and the previous owner was Audi uk ! I just set a minimum spec i will accept and anything else is a bonus. Sadly most D4's i saw seem to have a fairly basic spec where the dealers have been just registered cars for their sales targets, where the D3 was often well spec'd. And the poverty spec ones are not easy to move on when the time comes. Again just my oppinion. Cheers Glyn

just seen a clip on you tube about the online services, though it focused mostly on google earth. it was an audi video and they seem to be saying you can only use it with an audi SIM , is that right or can you find the best deal data card
