Can someone please tell if the Driver Assistance Pack contains reversing camera? I know the Tech Pack contains it as it lists it as a separate item. But not listed in Drivers Assistance Pack? Despite both having Park assist? VS.

Leasing it from another vendor. They just serviced it as they're the nearest dealer. Also no other Audi. I'm not sure if the 'bad design' argument will cut it though - the counter-argument could be it's very rare as only happened after 19k miles. :shrug:

Spent £500+ to have the first service at 19K miles. Took it out for a drive and everything was fine. Later during the day took the car out and it showed 'low coolant' warning. Following day took it back to the dealer to take a look and they said they found a little hole in the radiator which is...

I don't even know what it's supposed to do.

I think foldable mirrors are part of Comfort & Sound pack.

Here's a long running existing thread here - https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/real-world-mpg-of-a3-8y.426944/page-3#post-3746850 Mine is 35tfsi Stronic and added some mileage info there.

Looks awesome. Enjoy and have fun safely!

Over the weekend, drove from M1 J13 to Shepherds Bush London via M25, M40/A40 - lots of traffic with 40-60 variable speed limit but no start/stop. 62.5MPG when we reached there. Came back late night so fewer traffics and drove lot faster - only 45MPG. Comfort mode both ways. Fuel was Tesco...

Washed it :tonguewink:

TBH this is one of the most useful features of modern cars. If the driver is too lazy to turn lights on when needed, then the car can do it better than them. The amount of cars without any lights we see during dawn/dusk/low visibility is mind boggling.

Comfort most of the time, flick the gear switch to S if I need bit more response.

This car is a keeper for life :laughing:

This thread makes me so frustrated and helpless about getting another new A3 in 2023. The lease price is also way OTT. So I just went ahead and extended my current A3 lease for another year until 2024 and the new price is not too shabby either.

On a similar note to Qashqai and Mini, I find the new model Peugeot SUVs are eye meltingly bright.

Over the weekend drove to Peak district and back, M1 and then some nice twisty roads in Hope valley. It was very cold (5ish degree c), misty and road surface was damp and slippery. About 280 miles of total journey and MPG readout was 46MPG.
