    A3/S3 8V Owners Manual - PDF Download

    Thank you for this! So much easier to search than the paper booklet. I don't understand why Audi doesn't publish a digital version of the manual? edit: ooops, it's not searchable afterall, but thanks all the same :)

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    I took my car for a ride today: Foothill Expressway to Arastradero then up Page Mill to Skyline and back. Got caught behind a couple cars partway down Page Mill but the whole way up was wonderfully unobstructed. I'm still getting used to the DSG and paddles vs knob shifters. I was stymied...

    The optional B&O sound system in S3 top notch. My friend with a Bose in her new Cayenne GTS was jealous.

    S3 bonding

    I've just got 250 miles on it so far. Its obviously far more capable and far more solid feeling than my old car but I'm still not at all accustomed to what it's telling me while taking it thru turns at speed. Having driven my old car for 17 years, I'm very much attuned to what's going on with it...

    Knew it would get me in trouble.......

    Yesterday, I drove past a patrol lurking on the side of the interstate doing about 80mph. I was worried when it pulled out, but the lights never came on and it didn't follow me off at the next exit. I can't remember the last time I got a ticket, decades ago? I think that my new and old cars not...

    The wait is almost over! My new S3 is somewhere in California now, it arrived in San Diego a week ago. I expect to hear from my dealer either this weekend or sometime next week. Can't wait to drive it up to Skyline and down HW 84 to the ocean.

    Why did you buy an S3?

    Was time to replace my 17 year old Saab 900, couldn't get a new Saab, wanted a fast, fun-to-drive, smallish, practical, luxury car... and lastly... hadn't read any of veeeight's posts :)

    S3 stealth

    Maybe if the Samoa Orange metallic color were an option for the S3, I'd have gone with that less stealthy color... probably, I really like that color.
