    ASR or Sports Exhaust?

    Mine came with the Sports exhaust and is "not great" valves are only open above half revs with more than half throttle by which time you are proper moving:-) the ASR controller allows you to enjoy the sound for much more of the driving time:-)

    Interior panel removal to fit ASR controller

    Car run in and I have time over Xmas / New Year to install my ASR exhaust valve controller:-). Fitting Instructions look clear but I am slightly worried about pulling the trim off and breaking something... I searched on-line and the other ASR thread but cannot see details how to remove the...

    Lane Assist started working after 2 months?

    Thanks for the replies, time for me to eat a LARGE slice of humble pie! Although I had RTFM:-) clearly not well enough and as suggested above I had obviously hit the button on the end of the headlamp stalk without out seeing it (out of view in my seating position) or realising it... Out...

    Lane Assist started working after 2 months?

    Had the car for a couple of months and thought I knew most things! I've used active cruise control regularly in the UK (quite impressed with the way it deals changing traffic speeds:-)). However when coming back from Germany last week on the motorway I noticed the Lane Guidance feature had...

    ASR exhaust valve controller

    Useful thread for a RS3 newbie! Received my ASR controller, now for installing! Wiring/plug connections seem straight forward, maybe it is just me:-) but pulling the trim off an expensive car worries the hell out of me! I found useful advice here @TotalTechnik, what have others used for...

    RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

    Happy days, the car finally arrived, it really DOES exist:). In fairness to manufacturing the car landed in the UK week beginning 12-Jun, then there was a 3 week delay in them telling me it was here, followed by me being away for most of Aug! Peter Thanks #RS03??? for keeping the tracking...

    First Service Costs

    Just picked up my car, looking at the MyAudi App it says first service @ 19.000 miles or Aug 2025 which seems odd for a high performance engine! Reading above this appears to be the default - blimey:-).

    RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

    Got an update on my car, had been told build last week of Jul with delivery circa 21-Aug. Turns out it arrived in the UK a couple of weeks ago and they trouble contacting me... Have arranged delivery (due to my availability not dealer limitations) for 1-Sep! Could have been better...

    RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

    Out of interest (my car is a LONG way off!) do you get these notifications from the dealer or direct from Audi? If the later did you have to do anything to get signed up for them please? Peter
