It has been snowing for the last 4 days! At the moment in Luxembourg it is that wet rain which soaks you right through! I had to get the bus to work this morning Sad

Fuck changing them, a quick spray of WD40 will stop the squeak - it worked on my mates car for about an hour until the stupid fucker hit a lorry and died...

Well Audi seem to not want people to access the battery as it is also in a box which has 4 screws which you can't get off with any bog standard tools. I had to get the bloody thing jump started by an Audi geezer with some special machine and then the garage recharged the battery.
