    A3 2021 45 TFSI e S Line Competition

    Did you end up making the trade? Just sold my 45e competition and going full electric but ill give you my experience of owning the car for the past 2 years. Overall cracking car with more than enough power for our UK roads and great MPG when the battery has sufficient charge. Only down size got...

    Sticking parking brake

    Anyone had issues with their car struggling to pull away or reverse after it's been sitting for a few hours or overnight? The cars booked into Audi but this has been a problem since new, car is only 11 months old, its been in before but they couldn't replicate the issue. Once in gear you have...

    Which engine to choose potential new owner

    TBH I never drive full electric only so can't comment, is there any reason you'd prefer electric only? When in hybrid mode at those speeds the car will mostly be electric anyway.

    Which engine to choose potential new owner

    I've got a 45 TSFI e and as others have mentioned I can get 70-80MPG driving on hybrid mode. The power output is 250 BHP which is more than enough, at lights/roundabouts it will pull away fully electric then the engine will kick in if needed. It's by far the best car I've owned in terms of...

    Gear changes in electric mode (A3 8Y tfsi e)

    I've got a TFSI e and you don't notice any gear change, if anything its much smoother than an auto 35 tfsi which I also drive. I've got the paddle shifts which I often use and same thing never know you've dropped a gear without looking at the dash. From what I've read the electric motor is...

    Burning smell when parked up after using the Battery charge mode whilst driving.

    FYI - car been into Audi, turned out to be some tyre rubber on the exhaust and when in charge mode it gets "very" hot and the smell was burning rubber.

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    I've only had mine 2 weeks so not 100% sure how the power is working. I think its mostly EV at low speeds then the engine seems to cut in and then at some point it just goes crazy and you have the both together.

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    Which hybrid have you ordered 40e or 45e. If its the 40e November would seem reasonable but if the 45e did they say which year for the Nov 2024?

    Burning smell when parked up after using the Battery charge mode whilst driving.

    Noticed a burning smell when I've parked and got out the car after using the battery charge function. A3 45 TFSI e only 1 week old, no issue when plugged in charging or using EV mode , only seems to be when using the engine to charge. Phoned Audi and have it booked in for the 3rd of April but...

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    Mine did this for around 3 days, then all of a sudden the app picked up my car as updated (with an error). Soon as I seen this went into the car and logged in no problem, been fine ever since.

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    It'll be worth the wait, trust me. I'd never driven one before and was a bit skeptical about the whole hybrid but Audi have got it spot on.

    I've had friends get the emails and a phone call within the same week to arrange a delivery, so here's hoping. Where is your dealership?

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    I went into my dealer to check on my built week, what's when he pulled it up and said they'd taken off C + S. Wasn't sure if they'd put it back on but I would have had taken a chance waiting for delivery to find if it came with or without.

    A3/S3 delivery lead time?

    When I went in to check my order, Audi had removed C + S due to part of the production of getting cars out on time. It still didn't have a built slot and was a risk waiting till the end of the year to have it arrive without C + S. That's why I opted to take one that was already built without any...
