I have a 2006 audi a4 convertible. one of the latches that connect the soft cover top to the windshield is loose. there are 2 screw that latch to the soft cover that have fallen out. one of the screws is stuck inside the soft cover (i can hear it move as i make turns). i need to take the cover off of the convertible so I can get the screw. do you know how to disassemble the soft cover top? Comments: - i need the disassembly instructions, i know the problem already, the vibrations from the car loosened the screws causing them to fall out. there is no real damage.

Hi,
Is the vehicle under warranty? If so the only thing I would recommend is taking it straight to a dealer. That is why you buy a new car, for a new car warranty.
Thank you,
Lee

My trunk release keeps clicking- the lid won't stay latched

You need a new latch assy. You have to get it from Audi parts dept. If you are handy you can replace it yourself.

How does a manual top work on a 1998 BMW 323 I??

I believe you do this in this order. Roll windows down, release the latch at the top of the windshield, raise the front of the top, release rear cover by pulling the latch near the rear seat, Pull up the back of the top and then pull up on the rear cover. The back of the top should now fit into the opening under the rear cover. Continue to fold the top into this space. Push down on the rear cover to lock (won't be able to open trunk if not engaged.) To raise it, release rear latch cover, open rear cover and pull top out of opening. Raise rear of top so you are able to now close the rear cover, set rear of top down on cover and then pull fron of top down and engage the fraont latch. Hoe that helps.

Trunk lid wIll not latch when it is cold. I can get it to latch after several attempts at closing it.

I would guess it needs a latch adjustment. The rubber trunk seal gets firm with cold weather.

You have a brand new car and you have a problem. You need to take it back to the dealer. Why void any warrenty if something actully broke. Something fell apart and they need to be aware of it.

This is why I have a BMW. We beamer owners don't have these problems with our cars falling apart. ;-).

I don't buy into that commercial that AUDI has comparing it to a BMW. A BMW is still the ultimate driving machine.

Just teasing you. You really should have the dealer look at this in case the other side has an issue also.
