[s-cars] no start...

Guess who ?

Welp, after almost a whole three weeks of problem free driving I've got a
problem.  My 94 S4 will not start !  The weather here in the NE has been
fantastic the last week or so and the Audi has been getting a work out and
running flawlessly. Tucked her away Sunday night, got in Monday morning,
turn the key and get dash lights but no starter. Battery is fine. It'll push
start. Nothing on the solenoid when turning the key. WTF ???  I've got a
Bentley but thought I'd ask the collective wisdom first...  Oh, and could
any replys go to tompollock2002 at yahoo.com please ?  since I'm on a short
hiatus.   Gee, wonder if I should tackle the Audi first or try to get
windshield wipers running on the winter beast... ah, who needs those...

Oh and on a side note. The wife decided she wants a new(er) car and is out
of the "other" 94 s4. It's up for sale, again. We've been hitting the car
lots. I thought she'd go for a new RX8, but we were both not impressed. (I
mean, it IS a nice car, just not for me or her).  She "thought" she wanted a
new 1.8t A4... then she wanted the 3.0 A4 since it was a little more upscale
and a little more oooph... nope.  She then drove a neus4 (bi-tbo). Bingo !
The car she test drove was on deposit and the guy did pick it up so we're
lookin. Kind of surprised how few there seem to be out there right now.  Any
leads would be appreciated !

time to hit the garage !!!

thanks,
tom.
