Just wanted to say hello to everyone, Im new to this board and a proud new S4 owner (first Audi) and hope to contribute and converse with everyone on this board. Just to start off... can anyone give me any tips or quirky things I should know about my new S4.
Thanks,
AUDIoooh

Welcome.
Tips or things to know:
They kick ass and I want one.
Most of the problems I have heard with them are in the first few months of production. Since you just got one I assume its new enough that you shouldn't have the "bugs" that the early production models had.
Enjoy it and get to modding. [:p]
Oh yeah, post some pics! Use the Audizine gallery (http://www.audizine.com/gallery)

congrats on the purchase! I got mine back in march and been lovin' it ever since. just had my first scheduled maintenance @ 5k miles...don't be alarmed if you have to add oil in your first 5k, I had to do that on the way back from Vegas (@ 4k)and it kind of freaked me out but service guys told me that the yellow oil light means you're down only a quart and its perfectly normal for the engine to burn a little oil. especially if you're driving it hard (114 deg. in Vegas that weekend). I've heard others say that the S4 (and other audis) are generally oil thirsty cars

Welcome to the club... I'm guessing that you picked up an S4 sedan. Not too many S4 Avant owners that I see around the bay area that I've seen. Anyway, post pics and option pkgs of the car you bought. Already have a short shifter and Milltek exhaust installed in ours. Come out to Laguna Seca on Sunday- it will help you to break in the car faster!

Congrats and welcome! For a 1st Audi, you picked a good one ... [;)]
I've not seen many S4's in the Easy Bay but there are a fair amount on the peninsula.
One thing I've noticed is the brake dust on the tires requires regular maintenance (unless you mind grimy rims!)
Other than that, enjoy - mine is new as of July and I'm still having a great time with it.
Except at the gas pump. [eek]
