Hi

It will not be on your car I bet (Stop/Start). Week 22 build and after for Model year 2010 cars.

But I bet you will love the car

well i'm finally the proud owner of an A5 as it arrived yesterday. Done a couple of hundred miles and its great. Got over 50mpg on a 90mile trip... Gadgets are great though not yet read the manual.. I was surprised they gave me some ipod/usb cables to attach to the socket in the glove box as i didn't order the AMI option - I'll have to try and see if i can connect my ipod and it would be a pleasant surprise if it works.

even happier than before as it turns out I have the AMI inc ipod/usb cables and it all works a treat.

Thanks for the info. I too am strongly considering the 2.0TDi. I have never owned a diesel but the fuel saving figures are really appealing. Its just a shame they don't do it in auto.

Congrats on the new car mate!

Have you had a look at the www.a5oc.com forums? It's the site dedicated to the A5/S5 and it's full of extremely knowledgeable people and some great info.

(I realise i've plugged the site three times in four posts today. No I don't own the site!)

Thanks for the tip and the a5oc forum is really impressive with lots of useful info. I was struggling with getting my key out after stopping in that it kept getting stuck but a tip mentioned pausing for 0.5seconds before pulling out and that works a treat. I've done 1000 miles in the first week as myself and 2 friends went on a long weekend playing golf and i was amazed that with 3 of us, our luggage and 3 sets of golf clubs, the car still managed 50.4mpg over a 500mile weekend. No complaints whatsoever so far

Hello from France (excuse my bad english...)

I've found your forum and I need some help. I've bought a A5 2.0 TDI , S line , grey quartz and I don't find any pics of this car, exactly.
I'll receive it on august. So it wil be a year 2010 car.
Is there anybody here who have the same car (year 2009, it's good too !) and can send me some pics of it ?
I know the wheel is on the wrong side (the good is in France...) , but I'll watch your pics in a mirror !...
Please answer me on mp.
Thanks a lot.
Stéphane
