I have a 2004 A4 1.8q 4 door here in Canada with crappy AM reception.
Had a run around with the stupid sales thingy at the dealer (despite
what I told you about ME being your advocate in the Service dept 8
weeks ago, don't bother me again) there was no resolution offered by
the dealer. The AM reception still sucks; I just haven't got the
energy to go hit the jackass with the lumber he so richly deservers.

Argggh. Love the car though. A lot.
