Default no...

if you do you will lose a lot of people who don't have a d3, but have a lot of experience in these cars...

Default I would say no

It's not hard for me to think that I will have a D3 someday. And in a lot of ways, Audi's are the same.

Greenie's and others who had the problem with the HVAC not coming out of the center vents proved to just be the way an Audi climate control system works. We can answer a lot of D3 questions....and the buy back stories are getting interesting!

No as well. An A8 is an A8 in so many ways.

Simple question- WHY? We are all lovers of this great Automobile - the A8!

Default I hope not.

As I have said before, while I am not up to par with the likes of Paul and randy etc when it comes to mechanical subjects, I am fascinated by the problems laid out and the solutions offered. Once in awhile, even I chime in with an opinion on the D2. I would miss that. Who wants to limit the conversations to "merely" phone/MMI integration, colors of the D3 and whose car is being bought back by AoA!
