Default '00 A4 on order

Does anyone know how long it typically takes for a car to arrive in port from Germany? My A4 left port on April the 11th. I also was wondering if anyone knows how to get the headlight washers to operate and does it really help? Anybody know where the rear fog light is? Thanks.

Default Re: Rear fog on top "slot" oshield sprayerdlig

Thanks for all the info. Does anyone have a ratio of how many radio stations are on versus not on the rdbms thing? I thought that was a cool feature. Also, do the '00 have daytime running lights?

Default I was going to ask the same question.

Mine went to HA status on April 14th. Based off of that and previous posts, I'm expecting the dealer to have it on May 6th.

Default Sounds like similar timing to my car...

...dealer says it will arrive at San Diego port on May 4th, get loaded on the truck, and be ready for me to pick up (in Colorado) in second week of May. It was built in the 11th week (sometime in March). The boat trip takes so freakin' long because I assume it has to go through the Panama Canal. Much longer than to Halifax!
