    Are these colour coded? The Silver SE I had, had a black un colour coded shark fin type on the roof. Surely they would make them colour coded or are they all black?

    My A4's black so my antenna's definitely colour coded

    I had a blue A4 on loan for a day that had a colour-coded antenna and I'm 99% sure that a silver one at the dealers also had a colour coded antenna.

    The dealer said that my S line should come with the antenna colour coded.
    to be honest I don't believe him, so I asked him to paint the antenna upon arrival, if it should come black from the factory.

    We'll see who's right

    Isn't the antenna for Sat Nav?

    My SE is out of the box. It has no sat nav & no antenna. But I do have a very nice working radio.
    It was well worth "patiently" for A4 SE 2.0TDI Multitronic in Aruba Blue.

    As far as I am aware the antenna is for the mobile phone.

    Have you made use of the SD card reader yet ?

    Yes, it is brilliant. My full music collection on just a few SD cards.

    Makes me wonder whether you could get the same kind of technology for home use. I don't mean in an IPOD or similar (which require uncomfortable earphones), but a stand-alone system that uses the same SD cards.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Slightly off topic but my Panasonic TV accepts SD cards for looking at photos and also vidcam footage.

    I think the shark fin antenna may well be just for A4s that are phone prep'd. The test drive one I had was prep'd for the phone. Ive not been quick enough to look at the few Ive seen on the roads yet to see if its on all of them.

    There are many SD card readers out there that play MP3s. Some early MP3 players had a SD card reader so you could increase the size of the storage and most phones allow you to store MP3 on SD cards and play back. Ive not seen a SD card reader with a headphone socket though.

    Ill be getting a FM transmitter for my Ipod when my car arrives and I think the SD slot will never be used......

    I have ordered my A4 S line with the Phone Prep (Low), will that include an external fin? Looked at the brochure for the A4 and it only mentions it for the phone prep (High).

    Anyone in the know on this?
