<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/55118/img_1219.jpg"></center><p>hi everyone!

i've been reading audiworld for about 2 years now. after researching various european brands for quite some time, i narrowed it down to the new saab 9-3 or the audi A4. i purchased a new A4 3.0 Avant last week. (extra room for cargo and higher overall quality made me get the audi)

atlas grey
auto
premium pkg
bose
cold pkg
17 all season

quick question: when i start to drive, sometimes i hear a woosh/crunch like sound coming from the engine area? anyone know what it could be?

Default Congrats, nice car. If the noise you hear comes from the front as you start to roll, it is....
most likely the ABS initializing. This is normal.

Congrats, nice color! BTW... the crunch sound you hear is the ABS engaging.

The automatic door lock feature locks all the doors when you reach a speed greater than 8mph. That noise you hear is the doors locking.
