Newbie question...

Hi all,
Just bought a 1990 Audi 90 and I have a few questions.

First and foremost, I need a male plug for the fan switch.  Suggestions?

I have the three speed automatic, which is great on the highway, but seems
to really turn high rpm's.  Is this normal? I'm turning right around 5200rpm
at 100mph.

Gas mileage is about expected from a heavy car with a not so big motor. Is
right on 20mpg average?

Sunroof sticks:  Something I need to know or just lube the tracks?

Startup is rough for about the first 30 seconds, then it smoothes right out.
Is this indicative of something I need to attend to?

It's my first Audi, but I have a lot of experience with VW and a ton with
Toyota (land Cruisers) so I'm not a mechanical moron.  I just am ignorant of
these particular animals.

Also, I need a manual.  Anyone know the best place to go for one?  My local
dealer seems eager to help, but not too knowledgeable.

TIA,
