Sorry for the late reply. I had the whole frame and mechanism replaced under warranty. Apparently, one of the bolts securing the frame to the body was stripped, and it was a loose washer rattling around but only when the sunroof was open. They asked if I’d had any work done to the car as they...

To be honest this is really only an issue with stop/start. The car will cut the engine as you’re still rolling, but just about to come to a stop, instead of waiting until you’re at a full stop. If you’re creeping up to a junction slowly the engine might cut just as you go to hit the accelerator...

Interesting. Thanks for this Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is interesting because when my S3 went in for some warranty work, they gave me a q5 courtesy and when I first hit the brakes I nearly went through the windshield, they were so sensitive compared to the S3. Likewise after a couple of days in the q5 when going back to the S3 I felt like I was...

When I picked up my S3 from the dealer, they told me not to worry about any run in period and go enjoy myself. As long as I wasn’t ragging it from cold. I did try to go by the recommendations in the manual just to be on the safe side, but I only got to about 500 miles before my first launch...

It was the sunroof frame being changed so it does make sense that they would take it for a test drive to check for noise - I hadn’t thought about that. Thanks for sharing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My S3 has been in for the past week having some warranty work done on the sunroof. It’s not having a service, maintenance or any other work apart from the sunroof, but I have noticed from myAudi app that the car has had 13 miles put on it since I dropped it off. The body shop where the work is...

I have an S3 too, although it won’t have the same effect as a full exhaust, have you tried unplugging the exhaust valves? Even in dynamic mode the exhaust valves don’t open until over 4k rpm. I bought some blank connectors, unplugged the valves while they were open to keep them open, and...

Thanks everyone, sounds like I need to get it booked into Audi. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys, I’ve had my S3 about 4 weeks now, and have noticed a bit of a rattle coming from the pan sunroof. I wondered if anyone else has experienced something similar? I can’t hear it at all when it’s closed, only when it’s open. And only when going over bumps or rough road. It sounds almost...

After 12 (and a bit) long months, I finally picked up my S3 Saloon a week or so ago. I’m absolutely blown away. Coming from a previous gen A1 the difference in power is immense. Not to mention the quality of interior, tech and finish. It was such a long wait and with little update on build or...

Congrats! I’m hoping my S3 was on the same ship but no word from Glasgow Audi yet… what week did yours get built? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

“Nissan has also been cooperating with other manufacturers in the transport of finished cars between the UK and the European mainland since January 2004. When manufacturers send finished cars from Europe to the UK, the ships return empty. However, Nissan, which has plants in the UK, needs to...

I’ve had this thought myself, however important to remember that if you don’t accept the car, Audi will be able to sell it at a much higher price than I assume you agreed to when you ordered over a year ago. If you really want to stick it to them you should take delivery and then sell it...

Like others have said, I too paid mine off and sold the car at the end of the agreement, took advantage of the strong used market at the time to walk away with some money in my pocket at the end of it. However Audi did offer to extend my PCP agreement specifically because the the delay. The...
