I haven't had a 1990 version car since, well, the nineties so I forget
that the lights don't automatically shut off. Lucky for me, I don't go out at
night that often (sad) so I haven't had that many opportunities to drain the
battery ;)
Soooo, I finally did forget to shut the lights the other night and had a
dead car the next morning.
This came on the heels of my last post to the list asking about the
Autocheck on the dash not changing, giving me false "E" when my tank was half
full. being stuck at 12.6 MPG (ugh) that kind of thing. Well, apparently the
Audi works very much like my computer, or the cable coming into my house -
every time there's a problem, the techie says: Unplug everything, wait 3
minutes and boot her up!
After I charged the battery and got the car back on the road, guess what?
The Autocheck appears to be functioning again. Like the number of miles per
gallon actually changes depending on what I'm doing. Its a miracle!
