You're right. I stand corrected. It may have been in that position when I bought the car, but since I first used ACC, it's never been back.

I put Michelin X-Ice tires on my A5 a few days after I bought it three weeks ago. The 19" Summer tires would be a disaster around here.

You have the summer performance tires for the 3 non-winter seasons, why didn't you go with winter tires for the winter?

Just curious...

Or, Like our summer? IIRC — he is stationed / living in Hawaii.

Today was the first chance I had to wash my car since bringing it home three weeks ago. I’m happy I held out for Ascari Blue. The wash job is not without some flaws, but at least it’s clean.

sorry to come back to this again. Someone in the forum mentioned that when he pulls for the high beam, the stalk gets caught with the paddle. Also, I know the ACC is in the on position, what about when you pull it to engage(it goes back to your current position after pulling), would it touch the paddle? Do you have the same issue? Also, does it cover the gas and coolant temp gauges?
