    Plastic cracks from around door/pillar area

    I know, it really takes away from the whole experience of the car, if the rattle from around the steering wheel persists, try what I did, it may help

    Plastic cracks from around door/pillar area

    Did you check the spot I mentioned in my previous post ? It’s very hard to decern exactly where these rattles are coming from when driving yourself, I had the wife drive mine while I went around the trim, the little bit of material I added did fix this particular one, but it’s disappointing that...

    Going EV, not yet but if I was this would be one for me.

    I’ve never been a fan of EV’s and certainly do not want to own one, however my wife got a new Renault 5 3 weeks ago and I have to say it’s a really good car to drive , it’s perhaps the most un EV ,EV on the road at the minute I still don’t want one, but suprised by the way it drives and it’s a...

    Does the S3 limit the power when you are low on fuel?

    I got caught out last year in my 8y S3, at zero kms left, a warning came up to say “refuel immediately” I finally got to a garage after 22kms so there is a good reserve but my nerves were gone at the thought of running out!

    Plastic cracks from around door/pillar area

    No, it’s literally behind the steering wheel below the virtual cockpit., there’s sliver trim that touches the gloss black trim

    Plastic cracks from around door/pillar area

    Mine creaks from where the gloss black black clock surround meets the silver trim, took me a long time to figure out that’s where it was coming from, I jammed a small piece black material into it and it has improved

    Is it just the gearbox mode that resets each time you start car?

    How do you disable the “soundaktor” is there a separate option in individual mode or is it only switchable through OBD? Thx

    Is it the door seal rubbers that cause the door to rattle then?

    Sad to say Audi products going down hill fast! I got a loan car last week while mine was being serviced. It was a 2024 A6 with 11k on the clock, it had more rattles than my S3. Seems VAG have done cost cutting to the nth degree on all models yet the prices go up and up! I might try some...

    Is it the door seal rubbers that cause the door to rattle then?

    I have the very same problem, my car is 2024 pre facelift, mine is really noticeable when there’s a song playing with a lot of bass in it and like your issue it stops when I put pressure on a certain part of the door, I wonder which door seal was updated as there is a seal on the door itself and...

    Face lift A3 2024

    Great photos, I really like the Arrow grey, the more I see that front grille and new Audi badge, the more I dislike it.

    Very little sound from rear speakers (b&o)

    Mine are the very same, a bit disappointed in the B&O system in general, if you turn the bass up the door cards rattle too,

    Face lift A3 2024

    I put Potenza’s on my last car and I really thought they hadn’t balanced them the way they felt. also had a lot of tyre noise. They did last well but don’t think I’d get them again

    Face lift A3 2024

    I think EV’s have a way to go yet to be a viable alternative for a petrol/diesel car. Had a good look at a Tesla model 3 recently, the build quality was comparable to a Kia…. From the early 2000’s. !

    Face lift A3 2024

    Has anyone heard if this 8y FL will be the last Audi A3 powered by an internal combustion engine? Wondering if there be a 8z? Mercedes recently extended production of petrol models beyond the 2030 date that they had set to sell only EV’s, interestingly Their share price rose after this...

    Cleaning s3 tailpipes.::

    I’ve used WD-40 to clean mine, spray it on, let it soak for a few min then wipe off, works well on tar spots. If you have soot marks on the rolled edge of the tailpipe try scrunching up some aluminum foil and wet with WD-40 then a light polish will remove them, rinse off and if then use a fine...
