Can one turn on the radio on Audi A4 when the engine is off or does the engine need to be turned on?

I had some work done on my car and somehow, the radio can now be turned on without the engine being turned on. Am just concerned that the alarm has also been turned off.Can one turn on the radio on Audi A4 when the engine is off or does the engine need to be turned on?it's all normal, don't worry!Can one turn on the radio on Audi A4 when the engine is off or does the engine need to be turned on?I'm pretty positive car radios, clocks, etc. are powered by the cars battery. That's why you can still have stuff like the lights and the radio on when the car isn't actually running.Can one turn on the radio on Audi A4 when the engine is off or does the engine need to be turned on?Simply test the alarm yourself. If it doesn't work, fix it.Can one turn on the radio on Audi A4 when the engine is off or does the engine need to be turned on?
i have a 98 audi and you CAN turn on the radio with no keys in the ignition. just push the knob in and then push it again and it will come out and the radio will come on

How reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?

I have a 2001 Honda Accord now and i want to change cars. i am attracted to the 2004 Audi 1.8Quattro(45000 miles, $16000) and the 2006 Honda Accord. I think the Audi gives me more features for less than the newer accord. How does the Audi rate in terms of reliability compared to the Honda Accord. I know Honda will be better but is the Audi close or just worse?

I really appreciate any advice (i have done some research but i just want some opinions)

ThanksHow reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?If you are a passionate driver, The audi is a pure drivers car with the ability to customize just about any part. The audi comes standard with 3 braking systems, traction control a 5 valve head and 6 airbags. if the car is an automatic that 5 speed tiptronic is about the best in the industry. You see A4's every once in a while, Accords are generic in styling and are a dime a dozen.

Close the door on the audi then close the door on a honda that should answer your question.How reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?
actually the audi is better made and is just as if not more reliable than the honda. It is a luxury car and that means it is more expensive to repair should something go wrong (hardly ever happens) and other than that is a great car I have a 2005 1.8T quattro and to be honest the awd is amazing.How reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?doesnt stand a chance with a honda. nothing in this world doesHow reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?
i would prefer to drive an audi any day, but if it's reliability your looking for i would take the honda. it's extremely low maintenanceHow reliable is the 2004 Audi 1.8LQuattro compared to the 2006 Honda Accord?Well look I had an Audi 1.8T 2003, i got it with 40,000 miles. Every 2-3 months I brought it in to get something repaired, and sometimes the repaired things were once again problematic. So I had a bad experience with my 03 A4.. Then when i went in and got a 06 a4, the dealer told me "yea we had alot of problems with the 03 model".. so yea.. But as of now my 06 audi i got @ 16,000 miles and its great i love it.

    Its a 2000 S4, new clutch and all the maintenance was done timing belt.

    Should audi dealerships be charging me for this?

    i have an audi a3 and i am pretty sure it is having a coolant leak right now. i am bringing it in to the audi dealership today. the car is a 2006 model so it should still be under the 4yr/50K warranty. the car has 3.25K on it. should they be charging me for this checkup?Should audi dealerships be charging me for this?Not at all, it's under warranty.



    They should give you a car-wash too.Should audi dealerships be charging me for this?
    NO, it should be ocvered under your warranty. You also might get a rental car from them while they are fixing it.Should audi dealerships be charging me for this?depends.... if its general ware n tare they will... its like u cant claim ur brake pads are fading n stuff.. becos it happens...

    the warrenty only covers things like manufacturing faultsShould audi dealerships be charging me for this?
    This is POSSIBLY under warranty. Until the reason for the leak is determined, or if there even IS a leak, a prediction cannot be accurately made. Chances are if there's a leak this soon, it is covered, and you're good to go. However, was it caused by running over some debris in the road? Did a hose get nicked while someone was looking a your nice new car? Did someone lean on your plastic radiator and crack it? Too many possibilities until its looked at.

    -HamboneShould audi dealerships be charging me for this?No, you should not be charged. However, if the cause of the leak is determined to be anything other than manufacturer defect then you will have to pay for it.Should audi dealerships be charging me for this?
    I fully agree with Hambone's answer so please wait till the investigation/diagnosis is done and proves to be a real manufacturing defect-then warrant claim is valid.

    Cheers!
