'04 A4 heated windscreens

[fat tony]

Hello All

Can someone please tell me whether 2004 Audi A4 Avant Sport TDI 130 models have heated windscreens as a standard option?

cheers

I thought the technology for heated screens was owned by Ford and Audis didn't have them. I know the B6 models I've had never came with a heated screen, just a button to get the aircon to demist the screen quickly.

i did have a look around at the standard equipment specs on parkers, but it lists nothing.

i didnt realise ford owned the technology. if they did, you'd think they would at least make it robust. my 96 escort has a heated screen, which has an 8" wide strip (runs top to bottom) that no longer works, and guess what, its right in front of the driver. the rest clears perfectly

it was a similar story with the 96 escort i had previous.

it was not an option on the A4..


I always thought Ford only put them in as they knew their seals were poor and knew they always steamed up! LOL

Ahh ok,

So the button below the stereo with the little windscreen symbol is NOT a heated windscreen it is just the de-mist button....?
