    Can you play video clips on the MMI Nav System?

    Ah - maybe thats it then, so even though its in the manual my MMI wont support it. @simonali - What model do you have?

    Can you play video clips on the MMI Nav System?

    Hi, I'm trying to play video files on the MMI screen on my diesel 14 plate A3 sportback. I have put the files on an SD card (mp3 works fine), but its not showing filenames with extensions that the manual suggest are possible such as .m4v, .mpg etc...

    Cup Holders - Different sizes

    Hi, Possibly the most frivolous thread ever, but I was wondering if its possible to fit a different size cup holder? I used to have a 2010 A3 sport, which had (under the arm-rest) a coke can sized holder and a red-bull sized holder next to it. In my 2014 A3 Sport, it has two coke can sized...

    Where can I find the tyre pressure recommendations?

    Thanks very much for all your replies. Turns out it was on the door itself - that'll teach me for looking in the dark! I'm presuming I want the set with 3 people marked (as opposed to 5) as that indicates not heavily loaded? Thanks again. Now for a follow up stupid question - as there are 3...

    How to deal with digital service schedule? No more books.

    Hi, I've recently updated to a 2014 A3 sportback, and it comes with a digital service schedule. From what I read, decent independent garages will have no issue updating the official log here: https://erwin.audi.com/erwin/showDSP.do My query is how do I, as the registered keeper, review the log...

    Remove/Replace cigarette lighter in 12v?

    @Ormesome Ah, I see. Yes replacing it completely would be good. Is that something a garage is best placed to do? Although whatever the solution I still need to be able to access a 12v source to charge my Sat Nav etc... My old A3 had a flip style cap over it, I presume part of the non-smoking pack.

    Remove/Replace cigarette lighter in 12v?

    A bit like this I guess: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DOUBLE-USB-12V-LED-IN-CAR-MICRO-CHARGER-ADAPTER-PLUG-FOR-IPHONE-5-5s-6-6s-Plus-/272256411372

    Remove/Replace cigarette lighter in 12v?

    That sounds good as well, the goal is really to get rid of any reference to smoking, so no lighter, no ashtray. I have ordered the Audi 12v plug mentioned above. Do they have an official USB charger that fits in there - or at least one that looks smart?

    Trying to find some floor mats for A3 2014

    I'm looking for some floor mats for a 2014 A3 5 door Sport model. Does anyone know the difference between these 2? http://www.audipartsdirect.co.uk/product/Audi_A3_Sportback%7CSaloon_High_Quality_Carpet_Mat_Set_8V2061271EMNO...

    That looks pretty cool. Is £28 the going rate?

    Remove/Replace cigarette lighter in 12v?

    Thanks very much for your replies. Now ordered one from Stokes eBay shop. I think that will look much better :sm4: I'm picking the car up next week - is the ashtray in one of what I thought were cup holders?

    Remove/Replace cigarette lighter in 12v?

    Hi, I've just bought a 64 plate Audi 2.0 Sport and it comes with a cigarette lighter in the 12v charger. Can I get a non lighter replacement to fit in there instead? I guess it would be impractical to be able to retrofit a non-smoking pack? Thanks for any pointers.

    Newbie question - Auto acceleration?

    Hi, I've just got a 2010 A3 Sport and am finding it has a lot of bells and whistles over and above my old 1998 model! One of them seems to be an auto acceleration at slow speeds, like an anti-stall or something? Should it even be doing that? Its when I'm going slowly, or even up a gradient -...

    Retro fit of electric wingmirrors

    Hi, Is the retro fit of electric wingmirrors possible / advisable? Would the dealer do this, or would I need to do myself? I have a 2010 2.0 Sport model. Thanks Floob.

    Any issues with this A3 model?

    Thanks for the replies - I think I may hunt around for a 58 model as this seems to have various changes including multifunction steering wheel and the facelift as you mention.

    Any issues with this A3 model?

    A3 2.0 TDi 170 Sport (08 Reg) I'm thinking of buying this model, and was just wondering if anyone has views on it? For example, did the styling or trim change for the better on a subsequent model? Thanks for any views
