If you replaced it because it was leaking, you can probably get Audi to
pay for it. If you had the dealer do the job, and you're on good terms
with them, you might still be able to get Audi to pay for it--talk to
them!

Usually giving the offending speaker a good whack will cure it for a
while.
To fix it, you might search around the archives--the procedure has been
posted a couple of times. Basically, there's a problem with the amps in
the rear speakers; the circuit board for the amp pushes against its
metal case and shorts out. If you can't find anything, let me know and
I'll tell you the procedure.

Possibly your Idle Stabilizer Valve (ISV) is gummed up...maybe someone
who's done this procedure (Chris? Todd?) can help you on that one.
If they do, maybe they can post it on the list so that I can do it too
:)
