Smile you know your a b5'er when...

you know your a b5'er when:

...when it snows outside, you smile as you know your audi can take it.
...when you can floor the accelerator in a snow covered parking lot and keep doing donuts.
...when after 2+ years of ownership, learn you can open/close all the windows and moonroof by manually unlocking the door and holding it there for 5 seconds.
...when you explain to your significant other that you REALLY DO NEED PREMIUM GAS.
...when you impress your friends by hooking up your A4 to your laptop to clear codes.

I hated snow with a fiery passion til I got this car

The window feature is amazing, it always pisses off my friends in a rainstorm when I can just go out and roll up the windows without having to actually turn the car on as they get soaked doing just that. Amazing.

Gotta get that vag-com software... If I ever get my laptop fixed

Hey A4Cragman,

Just noticed you are in SLC. I live in Sandy. Utah definitely has its share of Audis.

Have you ever gone to the Audi place on 21 south and roughly 3rd east? I drool every time I drive by.

Nice! We should meet up sometime, SLC is just a generalization, I'm actually in Sandy myself. The place on 21st and 4th east is Streamline Industries. I take my car there for any and all work, Elf is a good man. Knows his s41t and only charges 85/hr for labor and doesn't try to sell you anything you don't need. Go there for any mods or maintenance you need, I highly recommend Elf over any other mechanic in the valley. Especially the stealership. PM me if you're interested in getting together sometime, Utah definitely does have a pretty good stock of Audis driving around, (tho not many B5s, which is nice, leaves a tinge of uniqueness to us ) so we should try organizing a meet or something sometime.

This is a bit of a spinoff of previous posts, but you know you're a B5er when your check engine light comes on, but you don't panic like the other 90% of people out there because you know exactly why it came on and will just clear the code with your lap top when you get home

I dont understand some people... why would you clear off the CEL when you know that something is wrong. Isn't it better just to repair or fix the problem and have it off. Like mine came on about a month ago but i know that its because one of my Cats gone bad so if i replace it, it will take care of the O2 sensor and my CEL... idk i just dont see the point of clearing it all the time
