Test drive Audi A6 2005 - 2008 sedan

From iPod'a to sunset

The main thing in the car is to learn how to use all its capabilities for peaceful purposes. The more you drive on the same car, the more extensive capabilities open - on the one hand, and the thinner your relationship with it is on the other. So we began to look closely at the little things on the Audi A6 Quattro 3.0.
First, we argue all the time: are wooden inserts really wooden? Someone says-of course, others say: plastic. The manager of one British rock band, who played in Moscow at the invitation of the team leader Russian Time N. Fomenko and an authentic autopilot, decided that it was like Karelian Birch-that is, to the Karelian birch. In his first profession, he is antique, what to take from him.
As soon as we began to feel in the cabin freer, there were immediately strange impressions, which were not there before. It turns out that such an installation of levers of the tilt of the seat, as on this model, can lead to unpredictable results. If you sit in a certain way with the door open, then the thigh (thigh) of the left leg can turn on the process of tilting the back. And everything would be fine (there is nothing to have such thick ham) if this happened to the passenger seat during movement, while in our case there was a chair with a child behind, and no one could understand what was happening, why the child was crying? It turns out that his legs crushed his back to the edge of the chair. Strange story. From the same category - the moment of non -inflammation of the engine from the button. As you know, the new A6 is equipped the ignition system with a button with a key in the pocket. A couple of times under all other conditions she did not start. I had to start Starikovsky-a key.
Russian mobile systems still do not allow using the Siemens phone on board with complete comfort. Because for now, you have to either rearrange the SIM card from your own phone to a car onboard or have a special car number, which, admit, is quite ridiculous if you do not spend all 6 hours of working time in the car. As Filenkov mobile communications expert promised to us, this is a matter of several months, but still we still wait and wait for the dual SIM cards from our mobile service providers.
Nevertheless, there are some things that we can do for our cars and without any providers there. At first we were upset by the fact that our Photo IPod we cannot connect to the Audi A6. Because as soon as the American automakers in time realized that they had to jump on the bandwagon of this train, and some of them appeared a nest for connecting an iPod via cable. From the Germans, this idea has so far been picked up only in Bavaria.
But we bought a Divine called ITRAVEL from the manufacturer Griffin, and he allowed us to connect our iPod to our Audi. This is done like this: a radio -transmitting head is mounted on your player, on which 7,700 songs of your favorite composers are recorded. The radiation head works like a small radio station in the FM band, and you, together with the machine, choose the frequency at which it will be most convenient for you to turn on. Then simply put your iPod in any container intended for transportation in the cabin, Coca-Cola and players, and then turn on the device. And instead of listening to all the nonsense of Russian FM culture, you listen to decent people. And then Zemfira with the group, animals will not destroy your brain and self -awareness. This month, on our iPod, included in the Audi A6 Quattro 3.0, we have new albums of the Finnish groups PEER GUNT, HANOI Rocks, Bastards, as well as collections from Metal Hammer and Terrorizer magazines with remarkable Turbonegro, The Agony Scene, Candlemass, Candria, Candria. Octavia, Holy Moses, Slit, Interlock, Happy Face and so on. That is, powerful groups, which are quite consistent with the volume of the engine and the total dynamics A6 3.0.
