I am a subscriber to Auto-Express, they highlighted an issue with the A3 over indicating on the speedo therefore recording too many miles, a reader wrote in after buying a Road angel and noticing a 6 mph difference (indicated 84mph on Speedo - actual 78mph) this was tested and proven to be the case so the owner was compensated.
In this weeks issue another A3 owner had the same issue and has since been compensated by their dealer for 6,000 miles they have not covered! The owner recieved an extra years warranty plus £200 in servive vouchers - the fault on this car was traced to 'incorrect wheel settings on the cars computer'.
Just wondering how many more of us may be affected ?
Any of you guys out there with a GPS device noticed a significant difference ? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/noidea.gif
