I am having the same problem I think, with howling brakes when moving slowly. Audi have dismantled, skimmed and greased the brakes, all to not avail. Have we any news on this issue please?

I have had a 3 door for over a year and have never experienced a problem opening same in a car park. Miss four doors on the few occasions with have to load the child seats, otherwise all OK.

I am a pensioner and I like a 3 door too. Firstly more room to get in and out of the car, only negative point the door is larger when opening it in a supermarket car park! When the grandchildren are in the back I feel they are more secure - they have to get past me to get out!! Finally I prefer...

I agree, the tyres should have a lip on them, my Jaguar XF had this lip and they were still perfect after 3 years. My Coulsdon wheel polisher is quoting 3 days - drop off on Monday, pick up on Thursday.

Thank you one and all, good advice all round.

I am the proud owner of an Audi A3 1.8 TFSI Quattro. I have noticed that the heated wing mirrors do not appear to come on when I switch the rear screen heater on? Do the wing mirrors work independently? When it is damp/wet in the mornings there is often a coating of condensation on the wing...

Hi Cemerson I have registered and found the link - I think, but when I click on it nothing happens?

I have visited myAudi, but cannot find any link to download Techpack upgrades, bit of a duffer I am afraid!

I sent an e-mail to Audi enquiring about updates and they state the following:- Thank you for your recent email regarding navigation updates for your Audi A3. Having discussed your query with our Parts Team, I can confirm that you can upgrade to the latest generation of maps on the MMI 3G...

Try and test drive the car you think you will purchase for as long as possible, half a day would be useful and then at least an hour with your second choice. You are then unlikely to make a mistake. If a dealer proves unhelpful, then approach another. If you have owned an Audi before they should...

cemerson's quote answers your question perfectly. Bu certainly no less than an hour to make a decision.

I agree with cemerson 100%. Test drive both models for a sensible period and hopefully one will stand out as the one for you, simple as that. If they both feel the same, then buy the cheapest and have a holiday in the sun to celebrate your purchase, or some extras such as the B&O system, which...

Dear All. Will Audi update your Sat Nav automatically each year when it goes into service, as all this seems a little complex for a pensioner to sort out!!

Has anyone noticed a build-up of condensation within their A3 headlamps? I used to have this problem with my BMW 3 series and Mercedes c320, but the Jaguar XF was always free of any condensation. Is this just a German thing? Have any of you experienced the same issue?

Yes, I appreciate it is normal for discs to rust, but although my front discs clear of rust as soon as I go on a short run, the rears do not appear to operate very often. Following a 6 mile drive and braking a number of times, the rear discs were still rusty with very few signs of it being...
