Hi
After last nights and todays heavy downfall of snow, its my first time in my A3 Sport S tronic in the snow. I had to turn around and come home, even then I couldnt make it back up my hill and had to leave the car at the bottom until the gritters appeared. Has anyone else similair experiences? I cant seem to get in manual mode in 2nd gear whilst sitting still, just to keep the revs down. I think thats why I couldnt get up hills as the revs are too high in auto mode and manual wont let me into other gears unless im going fast enough. This actually caused me to roll down a hill and bump into a parked car, which means a trip to chips away! Great. Any help or others experiences would be grateful.
