Can someone confirm that you need vcds to enable this menu on the A1? Apparently can activate this on an A4 with Carista, but A1s software doesn’t give that option? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

For those of you with a facelift S3, do you find that when accelerating whilst the gearbox does hold the gear longer it doesn’t bounce off the limiter? I.e it will change up around 5k revs? I was just driving my wife’s A1 the other day in sport mode and noted that the way her car acted in...

My wife's A1 is just over 40K miles and thus due according to their regime for a spark plug change (which is 6years or 40K whichever comes first according to their regime). However it's entire engine was swapped out at 27K according to the documents we have (and audis service record) before she...

I sent a parts request through, and I can't find the email password confirmation that was sent to my email - checked junk and trash in case it went there - is there a way to reset this? or can you simply log in as a member? As per below? Parts Request Guest Confirm Please confirm that you are...

Just put my wifes A1 in for an oil change today. Did the usual Service Price match, quote states as usual that all Genuine Audi parts used blah blah.. offered to email it to them, and they said just bring it in on the day. So wife turns up to drop the car off, and now they are saying that they...

Off for a simple trip into town... resulting in my car being rear ended !! [emoji35][emoji35].. obviously annoyed about it, but thankfully nobody in either car was hurt and damage doesn't appear to be too bad (damage to other car appears to be far less than mine). What a wonderful start to...

My wife's "new" car comes with the inbuilt sat nav (mmi 3G+) as far as I can tell (2sd slots, no SD card and option to use 3D functional map does seem to confirm this). Looking into update options, I presume that this has to be done through Audi dealership at some daft price? Has anyone used...

I will be now also be posting about an incoming A1 for my wife.. after a bit of a hunt on Autotrader, we settled possibly on a 2011 185bhp S-line s-tronic in glacier white with Panoramic sunroof Black pack Sat nav Heated seats Xenons Comfort pack Privacy glass Light and rain sensors Parking...

After doing my carbon mirror installation, I decided to do a little detailing... Snowfoamed with AF Avalanche, not sure if they have changed the formulation a bit, seemed to stick a bit better than normal Cleaned off the wheels, door shuts and crevices with AF brushes.. Moved on to two...

Was coming off swanage ferry the other weekend and clobbered my one mirror on the back of a bus.. Annoying but gave me the excuse to order some new caps as I'd been meaning to do so for a while.. Arrived today, £99.99 off eBay so fairly chuffed. I know they probably aren't the genuine Audi ones...

Now this is pure curiosity as I don't own an RS3-I have a std A3 184ps sportback (I would love one though!)... The rs3 is billed as an practical performance car you can use everyday.. Who's found that they miss the extra boot space lost due to Audi having to relocate the battery to the boot...

Yet another colour thread! Here's mine just after a wash/clay/wax.. Unfortunately the sun isn't out so you can't see it in all its glory...

Later in the year (once my wedding is out of the way), I'll be looking into changing my grille to rs3 type (simply can't justify the cost at the moment). I did think about swapping the fog light grills as well, and came across http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODAwWDgwMA==/z/kWsAAOSw37tV9YCm/$_3.JPG...

Over the last few months I've picked up a few alloy scrapes (1 by me, 1 by the other half and one I'm no idea how it got there!). Went down to the local bodyshop today to get a quote for fixing them - won't be immediately as I'm currently saving for a wedding, but wanted to know roughly what I...

Do people think this would look good? Spotted some mirror covers for cheaper than buying from Audi, and a little tempted. Not sure if the colour combo would work however. Thoughts? (And yes I know I run the risk of being afoul of the forum police for impersonating an S3[emoji12])

Well for those who say that your current insurer will never match new quotes..My insurance is due this month, so did the usual ring around, and as usual some were lower than my renewal, some not. Finally got my renewal through and rang my current insurer (elephant) to discuss it. Explained...

I noticed the other day, that after almost 30K miles, the fabric draft protector think at the front of the sunroof (when opened) was looking rather caked with stuff.. Now as this is partially see through, and only fabric material (i.e. no/v.v.light pressure only can be applied) - any suggestions...

BMW have just announced that all their cars will come with sat nav as standard spec from Sept 2015... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bmw/91294/every-bmw-to-get-sat-nav-as-standard-by-september-2015 Hopefully this means that Audi will have to follow suit soon, to avoid losing customers. TBH it...

:mad new: Going to have to have a bit of a rant here.. Took my car in yesterday for first service/oil change. Didn't use my usual dealer as they didn't subscribe to the price match Audi scheme within their group this year. As ~£200 is quite a bit of a difference between the price match and the...

How flexible are they with the servicing window in terms of mileage/time limit etc? Have my car booked in on the 30th for service/oil change, but might end up sneaking over 20K( doing more miles than i anticipated this.month...). I booked it a few weeks ago though. Im not going to risk voiding...
