Glyn, I'd make Audi my first port of call. If Tamworth Audi don't return your calls (which is my depressing experience with them), try Stafford Audi. Hopefully you will then have an Audi screen fitted and all the screen related electrics working when they finish.

Was it perhaps an 'athermic' screen she was asking you about. If so I'm betting yours is one of these. I believe all the 8's had them as standard from 06 on

Athermic, or solar glass, is a metallic coating laminated inside your screen. It reduces heating to you and your car interior on sunny days, I believe the coating is also co-opted for the windscreen heating.
