    Sport vs S-Line - Options vs Price?!

    Hey folks, I have been looking at the A3, it will potentially be a company car, so will be either the 1.4 150 Petrol version or the 2.0 TDI 150 Diesel. Anyhow... In terms of options, I am fussy, depending on your point of view! Must haves; Xenons Auto-wipers/lights/anti-glare rear view mirror...

    Heated seats not getting very hot...lukewarm if anything

    Really? To me there is no point in level 1-5 and level 6 gets mildly hot occasionally but still not as hot as other cars i've owned (Golf GTI MK5 / Leon FR etc) Put it this way, you could put it on level 6 and leave it on there for a 30 min journey and not need to turn it off...! What blocks...

    Heated seats not getting very hot...lukewarm if anything

    Heated seats not getting very hot...lukewarm if anything

    It's strange, the seat warping talk is definite BS, I had heated seats on my MK5 Golf and they were hot, in fact, on the highest setting you would need to turn them down after about 5-10 minutes unless it was REALLY cold, I also noticed that, If changing to setting 6...It goes warm, then...

    Heated seats not getting very hot...lukewarm if anything

    Hey folks, now that the colder weather is starting to come the heated seats will be used, but I have noticed, on level 6 they do not really go hot at all, in fact, they seem to go to a certain temp then just either turn off or just stay barely hot, then sometimes they might get hotter (but still...

    Anyone here changed their rooftop aerial for a DAB one?

    I know what you mean mate, but that would look a bit gash if im being honest :( no offence obviously! Just think anything stuck to a windscreen is tacky and not really for Audi's, more for a 1999 Ford Focus or something. Whilst I contradict myself 'anything stuck to a windscreen' this is the...

    Anyone here changed their rooftop aerial for a DAB one?

    Hey all, got set up with a Dension DAB adaptor to hook up to the stereo along with an indoor/windscreen mounted amplified DAB aerial, unfortunately, as I kinda knew from past experience, the signal drops in an out unless you place it in a completely gash-looking position (middle of windscreen...

    +12 and - can I get this from the Quadlock block?

    Sorry mate, nothing in the manuals either, this is Dension remember... A one page sheet is about as much as you get with their kit! :) I have decided to give it a go myself, but do it the 'proper' way, I am going to buy some 7amp cable from Halfords for the earth and live, and just run the...

    +12 and - can I get this from the Quadlock block?

    Hey folks, I have just put a Dension Gateway Pro & DAB Unit in the car but noticed the DAB aerial needs a +12v and a - connector (only very small wires) but I have no idea where to splice them into, could I scotch lock it into one of the existing wires going into the Quadlock? If so, any idea...

    Vibrating/Shaking at 60mph+

    Hey folks, I have a 2010 A3 170 TDI BE and it appears to have some sort of vibration issue at higher speeds. The best way to explain it would be if I try to accelerate in 5th or 6th at 60mph+ it feels juddery and the car literally shakes - if I take my foot off the clutch / accelerator it does...

    Back in a Black...Edition

    Hey folks, I posted the other day about being a new A3 owner, with a 2006 2.0TDI 170, anyway, I kept that 2 weeks before deciding to trade it for a Black Edition 2010 model, I couldn't resist! It is streets apart in refinement, I know it's a few years newer so it should, but things like gear...

    Been offered a swap deal...For Black Edition A3 Would you do it??

    Hmmm, I know what you are all saying here, the issue I have is, I spend all the money on fitting clocks, BOSE, Bi-Xenons, Wheels, the hassle of telling the insurance about it all , it will cost quite a lot, then I still have the PD engine, so it's not quite the same, and i've spent 3 or 4k on a...

    Been offered a swap deal...For Black Edition A3 Would you do it??

    Hey guys, this is a really random one, but since I bought the 2.0 170 S Line (2006/56) A3 Sportback with 75k on the clock a few weeks back, I have always thought I should have got the later version (with the white display!) and the newer CR engine. Anyway, mine was a decent spec, full leather...
