    Facelift MMI Rebooting Itself When Satnav Following a Route

    I have an S3 8V facelift. When following satnav the MMI reboots after about 15 minutes of driving. The screen retracts into the dash and the unit completely powers off before coming back on (without previous destination routed, very annoying). The problem started after I took it for an MOT and...

    Facelift Sat/Nav Virtual Cockpit Broken?

    Take a look at the picture, have you ever seen this before? The satnav pic in the left is not showing where I am/going, it's like the map has been slid to the left so it's totally unusable. The directions on the right have gone crazy also. Tried turning off/on again and removing keys. Sent...

    Facelift Service Questions: Transmission Oil Change vs DSG Oil Change

    My car needs a service and as the dealer gave me real cause for concern last time (Haldex gauze clean...), I rejected their offer of "Transmission Oil Change" and I am taking it to a local Audi specialist for this MOT and service. Firstly, last service was exactly 30k, this time car only done...

    Some cnuts have slashed the tyres on a load of cars across about 4 or 5 streets where we live. Over a dozen cars affected, some like myself only finding out two days after the event.

    1) Are there different levels of service plan? Bought S3 8V car in June, it came with an "Audi complete service plan" and i have docs to show this.

    Missing Tool Kit, Jack, Wheel Removal Tool etc.

    Audi S3 67 Plate Not the first thing you think of when receiving your shiney new car, but we've recently planned a trip to Glencoe (should be an awesome drive!) and I realise that I don't seem to have any tools at all with the car. The space saver is there, but contains a sub woofer (i thought...

    Facelift Oil Temperature Display in Virtual Cockpit

    I've tried to do my research to answer this question, but it's not easy to confirm if the comments and pics online refer to the same vehicle as mine. I cannot see an oil temperature value anywhere in my vehicle ('67 plate S3). I have seen pics of the oil temp in Virtual Cockpit but in F not...

    Noob Questions for New Purchase

    I just received this, and so far I am delighted with it. Sadly, it must sit outside my terraced house on a street, so it will take some TLC to keep it looking as good. I have absolutely no equipment or experience with keeping a car shiny, so what should I buy? What should I use to clean it...

    Hi! Big Day for Me Tomorrow

    New to the forum. My first Audi experience occurred when I was just 8 years old. Whilst in junior school I decided to complete and return a coupon from a car mag asking for more information for an Audi (can't remember which one). They sent me a VHS (yes!) and a massive glossy brochure and...

    Old Man Car is Sold! Collecting S3 Tomorrow

    I've been looking to replace my dull, disappointing Mercedes C250 D for a while. Checked out a lovely A6 Avant with 280 PS, very well specked, but its on such an old frame it looks a bit dated inside. I used to do long drives to South but i dont expect any more of those, so........ I tested a...
