As some of you remember me coming from Chicago with fogged windshield and partially wet carpet. I got a pictured report.

Firstly, who was guilty?

4 hrs for taking all parts out and segregate them(2 persons)(thanks J@ro)

In the time the carpet was drying.....

I was cleaning the floor...

and took care abou the leather on the seats

Of course some folks in the area needed help too ..

In the same time I have noticed there is one place on the floor in driver footwell where the water still collects itself. I made a test.

Found it! The area of relay box/hood opening linkage had some leak. A little sealant in that area solved the problem.
(can't find the picture)

So, the biggest PITA was to get the carpet dry alone - 3 days outside and 4 days in the car upside down.

Finally i got this thing in one piece!!

Getting all the parts together took me around 6 hours (getting carpet back underneath the dash was tough). No screws left!!

So, go check this wonderful audi engineer's plug NOW = ~.5 minute.

Very nice work

all that work wasn't just beacuse I missed something.

2 reasons for the question

a) I'd like to see how the factory wiring is layed out, what components under there, etc..
(if you didn't want hassle posting, you can email them to me)

b) it'd be great to have labeled shots of items for the FAQ

Well done Oliver,looked like a tough job,and you found the leak!!!

It seems like the carpet is attached somehow in the area behind where the radio/climate control is located in the center console.

How do I get the carpet out from this area?


Thanks!
