I use Deezer from a S7 edge. Even though the bluetooth is connected to the car I have to go into bluetooth on the phone and select Audi MMI from paired devices every time. Then it works.

Drove my S3 for the first time in light snow a few weeks ago. Pulls away great and the grip is excellent, I thought "this four wheel drive is brilliant". However braking grip is terrible and it did not want to slow down even at the low speed i was going. Could just be the increased momentum...

I was told you have to wait until the 14 day cooling off has passed to keep the contribution. Again I was told the dealer does not get the full finance commission until six payments have been made. Its never been a issue with Ford or Audi and you can get a settlement online. For me it was...

There was a maximum deposit of 50% when I pcp'd my S3. Long term pcp will be slightly more expensive but it works. I took out a PCP to get the best deal then cleared it after a month. You are in a good position as your car costs you nothing other than running costs at present. Don't...

Looking at the invoice I got 11.4% off on a £35k 3 door car of which £1600 was non Audi contribution. At the time it was also 10.8% but their creative invoicing makes it appear higher. They were obsessed with monthly payments rather than cost of the car which I was not ready for. Actually...

Another Lotus fan here. Passed my test in 1991. Had motorbikes until 1998 so cars were secondry. 1978 Mini 1000. Low mileage Rust bucket. Crashed 1981 Mini 1000. Wheel came off into dealer forecourt. 1989 Peugeot 205 998cc 1994 Fiat Punto 1.2 1998-ish Saxo VTR. Hit a kerb, bent something...

Diesel is the fuel of the devil. Recent trip mostly motorway with a bit in town 40.4mpg in efficiency without really trying. Done 1300 miles and life average is 27mpg. Even making progress it will return low 20's which is suprising considering the performance on tap. Thats using Tesco 99 at...

£4k on insurance is mental and a waste. Get a cheaper to insure and run car . Save for two years and have more no claims then get a S3. Golf interior is really not nice. If your loaded disregard.

Have you pressed the volume control button which mutes the sound? I did this when I got my car. Should also confess I could not get the radio on at first. :-)

Could be the pistons bouncing off the inside of the bonnet at 10k rpm. ;-) Sorry no help. Is car protecting itself because its not up to temperature?

I think its rear seat belt status. Plug one in and see if it changes.

Oh the shame. Tomorrow is wash day.

First post. My FL S3 has just done 1000 miles and cannot say I have experienced anything accelerating. However over bumps and dips the traction control kicks in very aggressively but I am aware of it now so ready for it. Have only seen the light flash a couple of times and that was on frost...
