Default Things to do before delivery...

OK, just got an email from the dealer that my wife's A5 is coming within the next 2 or 3 weeks. Anything I should do before delivery? Anything I should tell the dealer to do (other than change the 'wink' of LED driving light)?
Can't wait....

They may or may not fix the wink.. depends on the dealer. No requirement that the fix it, because technically, its correct..

It's when you use your turn signals during your daytime running LED lights are on. They shut off when the turn signal blinks. With a Vag-COM cable and a quick change this can be "fixed" or "adjusted".

I'm in the same boat and my 2010 A5 will be here right around xmas. It will be my first audi. Is there a PDF version of the handbook available for download online? I wouldn't mind looking thru it while I wait for my car.

Default Got it!!

Just took delivery of my wife's A5 2.0T yesterday, it's NICE!!







I just have a question: is that anyway the car can lock the doors automatically when it sense the driver (or the last person leaving the vehicle with the Advance key) walking away from the car?

Most people lock their doors by choice. You don't want them locking automatically if say, perhaps, a child is in there. You can touch your door handle and lock the car so easily.

I notice that you have a double exhaust pipe on one side. It's funny how the Cabriolets have a single pipe on both sides. There is no consistency I see. The brochure varies too. It looks like the Cabriolet has pipes like yours and it's different on the actual car.

The car is beautiful! Enjoy! I just got mine on Saturday.
