I think it means the engine is red hot and performing well.

It means your car is angry at having to listen to Elaine Paige on Sunday. And to be honest, I don't blame it either.

Tbf Audis will show the current radio station even if the radio is off. "Off" is effectively muted. Annoying as it unmutes everytime you turn the car back on.

I'm planting this excuse for when I do a picture of our A4 dash when Mrs SiC has left it on some dire radio station.

It did, but that was over 40 years ago, you wouldn't ask now.

Had the transit in on Saturday for the new ancillary battery and diesel filter.
I pleased with the results for once. There's no more stalling and the heated windscreen has cured itself.
The big news is that the lumpy idle and chugging along at low revs has been fixed and the idle speed is a rock steady 850rpm instead of wandering all over. It's much easier and smoother to drive now. It's ran rough like this for about two years and I've had it serviced four times in that time. None of the cunts must have changed the fuel filter although they all fucking charged for it. I've heard or read it's a bastard to do.

I bet the battery had as much effect as that'd be dragging the voltage down across all the systems too.
