.... maybe a deliberate ploy to make you take the aluminium option LoL. Why mess with the vents tho if it's not broke don't fix it look at the bouncy rear end instead or the creasing seat bolsters. If I ever get a customer survey from Audi last thing I'd criticise would be the vents - confused !!

I have a feeling if you spec aluminium, the vents will still be red? The 'inlays' are the bits on the doors and above globebox surely? For example if you specced gloss black on the PFL, you'd still get silver vents? Or not?

I know you guys are mostly after the fast highly specced A3 but any ideas when info on the lowly new 1.0 engine will be available?

The half engine will be available from week 25. (Page 9 of this thread courtesy of @JordanT92)

Could well be ?? PFL vents were silver only so I've no idea what we have in store with the FL. Have seen pics of FL showing both a silver aluminium and also a black outer ring but both sharing the red border (had to choose my words carefully!!)

Ahh OK I see what you mean

Think I prefer the silver which is what I originally ordered when it was free

Will have to see what happens

Wtf...... Jeezo lol the super sports seat's and RS3 design package doesn't cost anywhere near that at £1700

Jassyo06 · May 8, 2016

Most desirable options
Technology package
S-Tronic
Pan roof
B&O
Folding door mirrors
Comfort pack
Privacy Glass
You don't need anything else
All these options are good for a private sale,when time comes

Lapapps · May 8, 2016

Iv just noticed, unless I'm blind, there's no BSP for the TTS? So could they be doing the same with the S3?

Vegas joining the colours is definitely a plus in my book but sadly it shows up the smiley grill even more than other colours lol

So, does anyone know if they've fixed the trash steering in the S3 8V on this facelift yet or not?

Details...Details....**** the only ways ye can differentiate any Audi is in the Details mate....they all look da same

Can't say I'v noticed myself.... :whistle2:

nadsi77 · May 8, 2016

Under the standard spec for the S3 on the I phone app, it says rear shock absorption. Could this be the fix for the bouncy suspension? Or am I missing something.

cuke2u · May 8, 2016

Says that for other models as well. I think there has been no suspension or steering tweaks, certainly audi have stated nothing..

Daz4311 · May 8, 2016

Does the s3 saloon still get the magnetic ride

Daz4311 · May 8, 2016

Yes for A3, few more weeks for S3 (week 25).

The Audi UK website now says open for ordering:

Looks like my vent trim eBay crap beat Audi to it.

gamegenie · May 9, 2016

I have no dog in the hunt for a facelift 8V.

I say Audi purposely made the cosmetics of the facelift ugly so that it would not overshadow the A4 this time, as it did the previous B8.5 A4.

What I do want to know is, will the non-virtual cockpit dash have the wider information screen between the gauges like the non-virtual cockpit B9 A4 and the A6, A7, and A8?

like the larger sized info screen on the instrument cluster they showed off in the car's sedan concept?
^ Something tells me Audi is not going to do this.
