Default How to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit display in A8L 01?

Did a search and I didn't find my answer, I just got a A8 01 to replace my S4 and I'm wondering if, similar to the S4, one could switch between the different temperature display.

Thanks,

Press and hold the "recirculate" and the "+" button at the same time.

Default They are both Factory wheels from the 2004 A8 model.........

The Amethyst has the 5 spoke 8.5 x 18 inch polished alloy wheels with 255/45-18.
The Silver one has the 12-spoke 8.5 x 19 inch polished alloy wheels with 255/40-19.

I'm not sure about the offset but I think it's 45, it's been a while since I bought them,
either way they both fit really nice on the 97-03 A8.

Default The procedure given works only for the climate control - Doesn't work on the outside temperate....

Any idea as how to get the outside temperature display to change as well? Or do I have a faulty system?

Default The outside temperature display should change as well.

It switches about a half second or so after the climate control temp swithes.

Default Not sure if it is faulty, I have year 98,99. Maybe Audi changed it for some of the 00-03 models.

We need more feedback from the D2 facelift models.
