Re: wax
I use this Japanese Stuff (called Soft 99).
I am ridiculous when it comes to keeping the car shiny and smooth and this is by far the best wax i ever used. it comes for either dark cars or light cars.

Newbie needs help!?
I found this site about 3 weeks ago and I have been going through different threads to determine how to fix the problems on my 2002 A4 1.8T sport package. This site is GREAT!!!! It is very informative.
History: My A4 was maintained by Agincourt Autohaus (AA) in Toronto and has been maintained by Mark Motors (MM) and a local garage in the Glebe area (super honest and nice people there) since I moved to Ottawa in 2007. Whenever I have a chance, I like the local garage to do some small jobs on my A4.
1. Just now, my local garage said they could not fix my wheel alignment because they don't have the technology. I am quite reluctant to take it to MM in Ottawa. They are very courteous, but they are relatively expensive. Do you guys have any alternatives (which have the technology) for me?
2. AA fixed my timing belt and water pump in 2006 ($1000 -just after the warranty had expired) at about 80000 km because the service guy said there was a oil leak from my engine and the timing belt was contaminated. About a month ago, when I took my car to MM for engine light and regular service (total $1600), they said there was a oil leak from my engine and they recommended me to replace my timing belt again. Do you guys/girls have similar problem? Should I fix it?
3. I recently found some wiper scratches on my windshield (I don't know what happened). They are not deep though. Do you guys think places like, Apple Auto Glass" can fix the scratches for me? ( I know I may have to go to another thread to get the after market windshield)
I hope you guys/girls can answer some of my questions. Thanks in advance.
