Purchased my First Audi tonight now need Parts and Accessories??
Hi I just purchased my first Audi a 2002 A4 Quattro with 3.0 V6. I just love the car it has 141,000 km and it looks like it came off the assembly line today. A diamond in the rough. I am very excited about, but now I need the following parts and accesories and I was hoping some one can steer me in the right direction where to purchase them?
1. Winter/Rubber floor mats
2. 16 " Alloy rims and winter tires, what I have researched so far is that a lot of Audi owners like Bridgestone Blizzack WS60's for winter. Where is best place to buy rims and tires? Tire rack seems to be best so far I found online. Is there any place else that touches there prices?
3. Where can I find owners manual on line for car? or car brochures from 2002
4. Audi parts if everything goes on car eg) O2 Sensors, brakes, etc...
As I live in Edmonton if can buy in Canada preferred or a US supplier tat does not charge a arm and leg on shipping.
Thanks for any info

Welcome, so glad you chose audi. You will love it!
1) i usually go to canadian tire for that.
2) im from toronto
3)I would say go to the dealer, the only place. It might be about 80$+
4)Im looking for one as well. For some things i recommend these guys, they are cheap and good.

I usually try to use autopartsway.ca since they are canadian and have free shipping on orders over $75. They also have 10% off sales almost every holiday you just have to sign up on their site and recieve the e-mail. I still shop around however and blauparts is a good source in the states with reasonable rates but no Canadaease shipping. ECS tuning (states) is also good and have canadaease shipping but have higher prices and I'm not sure you save much with the canadaease (just in hassle). If you are looking for something that doesn't necessarily have to be new, shokan coach works is a recycler out of the states that specialize in audi and have a huge inventory. End last but not always least is ebay. You can usually find pretty cheap parts on ebay, but beware quality. I have bought parts and tools from ebay stores such as deutscheparts and ZDMAK with no problems, but you never know.
So there ya go, I do most of my own work and have purchased many a parts for my car, the best things to do are shop around, compare quality and always factor in shipping!
Welcome aboard!

Thanks to everyone so far. There seems to be a few good Audi online stores but still having trouble finding rims for car.

To update on Mats went with Digiform mats from Weather tech for car. Bit pricey but have heard good things. However will take 3 to 4 weeks to come in. As for rims for car still no luck, looking on line in States, but shipping kills any savings along with brokerage.

For wheels & tires you can try:
Discount Tires | TireTrends.com!

1010TIRES.COM — Tires and Wheels Absolute Authority.
They are both Canadian and located out west so shipping shouldn't be too bad for you.
