    Well, I have the car now and intend to do a bit of fiddling at the weekend once I get a bit of time. Id rather have a comprehensive database than one thats easy to work around so was wondering if you had any more joy with the poibase or is pocketgps the route to take? Is your guide (#50...

    DAB Channel Icons

    The Seat unit has the option to assign icons to stations via SD card or usb stick. Was hoping the Audi system had similar attributes. I'd like to think so anyway.

    DAB Channel Icons

    Does anyone know if its possible to have the DAB radio display the channel icons, in a similar fashion to the seat way? Ive searched the forum and played with the system, but so far have had no luck whatsoever. Thanks in advance.

    For £1795 I think you will have the connect and therefore Google mapping facility. If it's €1795 then maybe not.

    Haldex Quattro system

    From BorgWarner; "The Haldex coupling will constantly transfer some of the engine torque to the rear wheels. However, driving straight at about 100km/h with no major wheel slip does not require much torque transfer from a performance point of view. Instead the torque transfer can be optimized...

    Are the dealers throwing these things in without being prompted, or are folk having to be cheeky and ask for freebies?

    Video in motion...........

    Vehicle manufacturers have to adhere to type approval to ensure they comply with the law. What we do to cars after buying one that complied to the law must also comply with the law. Front seat video in motion doesn't.

    Video in motion...........

    I wouldn't have thought so. After all this is a forum, and a forum is "a meeting or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged". Which is exactly what is happening here. Moderators are there to ensure people aren't abusive, rude etc, not to police the internet.

    A3 1.4TFSI COD real world mpg and DSG roughness

    Very true, however, audi never stated that you wouldnt get 85+ at 40mph. Maybe they would have if it was one of the industry standard criteria but unfortunately its one of those EU led dirctives, all very good if we lived in eutopia but alas... Who thinks the A3 Etron will return 185mpg? I for...

    RYuill, how much sooner was your car built than you were told it was going to be? Mine was planned for this week but I'm beginning to wonder if it may already be built.

    What were Audi thinking with the Speedometer on Audi S3...

    Exactly. It'll be a bean counter input. More likely so as not to incur increased cost rather than to reduce it.

    Tyre pressure monitoring system....

    Long sweeping bends can give false alarms, so don't panic if it goes off mid a or b road spirited drive!

    Audi have rather handily provided a flat pop up surface for you to 'lick and stick' your halfrauds device to. And listen to it giving directions in a Homer Simpson accent. Or the Terminator.

    I was told today that my car is being built next week (week 20). Does this mean I can get officially excited yet :confused:
