My C5 A6 had some interesting features that i believe most Audis of that era shared. Insert the key into any lock cylinder (Even the one mounted on the trunk!) twist and hold to the right, all the windows will roll down, the sunroof would open and the doors would unlock. Twist the opposite direction and the windows…

My C5 A6 that I bought off Craigslist when I was 16. Spent the entire day before the exam trying to get the CEL to go away, only to just cover it up with electrical tape.
A normal pad and rotor change on my Civic turned into 3 broken drill bits and probably the most annoying 3 and a half hours of my life. From the factory, Honda uses 2 Philips head screws to hold the rotors onto the wheel hub, which can be seen here:
Check the vacuum/dust plate that sits behind the brake rotors. I recently had a similar problem but it was very loud, turned out that plate was just bent enough to scrape the back of the brake rotor. $50 to straighten it out and the sound is gone now.
Don’t be like me and spend 5K on a 2001 C5 A6...it was awesome for all of about 1,000 miles, that’s when the transmission decided to shit itself.
There wasn’t necessarily just one Car Guy in my High School, rather it was me and two of my closest friends. We were “Those Car Guys” the ones who would show up late to school because our cars had broken down and annoyed everyone as we pulled into the school, with the sounds of an Sr20DET, J30A, and the rod knocks…
Im thinking a 2005-2006 (‘06 on the left and ‘05 on the right) Ford Explorer.
All time favorite picture of my car, unedited and taken on a 6S plus.
My 2014 Civic does that as well, when I turn on my High Beams, my fog lights turn off. Same goes for my previous car, a 2001 Audi.
I had a C5 A6 with the 2.8, the key word here is HAD. Don't buy one unless you want to spend the majority of your time on the side of the road because of electrical problems.
