Audi A3 Sportback 2.0T Bought October 2008 at 13,100 miles Now: 23,250 Length of ownership: 22 months

Thanks for the link antmax7. Emailed opieoils and had a reply that mixing the Castrol SLX LongLife 3 with Castrol Edge 5W30 would be fine and the engine would suffer no problems. Oil level is fine for now, but going to order a 4 Litre bottle from opie oils just so I have some handy for the...

Hi, I own a 2006 A3 Sportback 2.0T. Its been serviced in october last year and Castrol SLX LongLife 3 Oil used. I was given a 1 litre top up bottle for between services and it is now finished. The engine didn't used to use too much oil but its consumption of oil has started to rise lately...

This price was the straight price that the dealer wanted for it as well. Never traded my old car or anything against it. Good luck if you decide to go for a 2.0T. Its a great car, great engine and very reliable. I'm sure you'll love it mate.

Back in October 2008 I paid £9900 for a 06 plate Audi Sportback 2.0T Sport with FMDSH and 13,100 miles on the clock from a Volkswagen main dealer. It was due to end on a lease contract or something and due to the recession and rising petrol prices the garage just wanted rid of it. Car checked...

Alright mate, Have the 2.0T engine in my 2006 Sportback. I don't do too many miles either and I bought mine about 18 months ago as at the price it was advertised at, it was a bargain. Mileage wise, its on 21,000. It has the manual gearbox and the only thing to have gone wrong with it was the...

Finally got the door fixed on Wednesday. It took the mechanic a little longer than he thought but it is fixed and aligned properly again. Hopefully it won't happen again. Thanks for all the replies to the thread, they were appreciated. Cheers

Sorry to hear of your misfortune Cruiser89. Glad you got it sorted with little trouble. Mine didn't actually take that big a bang. I took it to one of my local garages who assured me they could fix it. Although this garage doesn't actually do any bodywork repairs. The mechanic thought he...

Hi, Thanks for the comments guys. I've took the car to a local garage today for the mechanic to have a look at. He thinks the door is only out at the bottom by about a millimeter. He is going to remove the door and then realign it for me. He says I've been lucky that is not crumpled the...

Thanks for the comments Staz & PaulAr. :sm4: I have had a proper look at the door today. The passenger door is only slightly a couple of millimeters out at the bottom corner. Its ever so slightly catching on the corner of the front wing, but the panel itself is fine with no paintwork damage...

Hi, Earlier tonight my passenger door got caught by the wind, whilst my passenger was exiting the vehicle. I can shut the passenger door, but its not shutting properly. It doesn't feel as flush as the drivers side now. The car still locks properly etc. I haven't had a great look at the...

VWAddict - If it is the brake master cylinder that is at fault. How much would I be looking at for it to get fixed/replaced as my car is a couple of months out of warranty? Don't know if its wise to take it back to the Audi dealer who did the brake fluid change as if you said this problem sort...

Cheers FUNKYCLIFF. If it is what you think it might be, it shoudn't be too expensive for a small local garage to try bleeding the brake system on my car. Thank you for the help/reply mate. Its much appreciated.

Anyone any ideas about what this problem can be?

Hi, Last week I got my 2006 A3 Sportback 2.0T serviced. During this I also got the brake fluid changed. Car felt fine until yesterday. Went to slow down for some traffic lights and it felt like it had no brakes. Had to press pedal twice for the car to stop. Afterwards car felt fine. Today...

They used Castrol SLX Professional Powerflow Longlife III 5W30 for my service.

Thanks for the reply. Ended up taking the car to Ayr Audi today. Car got serviced while I went for a look around the town. Went back and was given the price of around £370 all in. I explained I had asked for the £49 brake fluid check and £199 major service as per Audi's fixed price...

Hi, I am about to get my car serviced at Ayr Audi and was wondering if the price I've been quoted is correct. Car is a 2006 A3 Sportback 2.0T with around 19,000 miles on the clock. DVLA website says car was registered new in August 2006. It had its delivery insection on 16th October 2006...

digzz - Thanks for the help mate, its appreciated. I'll check all under bonnet fluids again tomorrow, but they are checked frequently anyway. I'll have another look and pay a bit more attention to the brake fluid pot. Thanks again mate, for taking the time to reply. Cheers.:sm4:

digzz - Was this a dealer fix for you under warranty? I have mine booked in for next week and have mentioned the problem as described on here to them, so they are going to be taking a look. I am just hoping that they don't say its anything else and try and wriggle out of the warranty claim...
