HI all, not posted here for a while as I defected across to the dark side with my newly delivered Golf 7 GTD. Whilst it pretty much exceeds all my expectations,there are a couple of niggling little issues, that I would like an Audi owners (A3 8V) perspective on - all to do with the infotainment...

Well after much debating, negotiating, cursing and soul searching, I have finally ordered the new cars for the wife and myself. As you may know, it was originally going to be an A3 Sportback 2.0TDI S-Line for me, and an A1 1.4 TFSI S-Line for the wife. Well despite trying 8 different dealers as...

Hi guys, Re the photos below of the new S3 that was all over the internet a few weeks ago, does anyone know if this is Misano or Brilliant Red ? I ask as I'm configuring the car and trying to reduce the options somewhat (as I've gone a bit mad). The Misano Red is obviously a £525.00 option...

Hi guys, I know this is a Audi forum, but thought a few of you might be interested in the new Golf 7 GTD who's price list has just been uploaded. It has all the kit the GT model has apparently with the following (main bits) of kit built into the price 18" x 7.5" Nogaro Alloy Wheels GTD Sports...

Is there a difference between the roof spoilers on the S-Line 3 Door to the 5 Door. Just been looking through the pictures thread, and saw the following image from Audi Man Dan (hope you don't mind pal), and his spoiler show a small cut out in the top edge...

Out of interest, does anyone know what size the front brake discs are on the SB 2.0TDI ? On my Diesel Rocco, they are 288mm but the more powerful 170 Tdi got the GTI's bigger 312mm setup. Just wondering what the A3 Sportbacks get for the various engine models ?

With audi announcing that DAB will become standard from MY14 build onwards, I'm just after a bit of advice please. i have an appointment this afternoon with an Audi dealer to officially place my order for 2 cars - My A3 SB 2.0 TDI S-Tronic S-Line, and my wife's A1 1.4 TFSI S-Tronic S-Line. As...

Hi all, a bit of a nerd I know, but I have most of the VAG Self Study Programs (SSP) in pdf format, going back a couple of years now, now, and find them really good for checking out the last tech etc. Does anyone know if there is one yet for the new A3 ? I have it for the last 8P model...

Hi guys, has anyone got the folding mirror package with their A3 ? Reason I ask, is that I'm stil debating between an A3 SB and the new Golf GTD (when it's available to configure at the end of this month). However due to a narrow pathway at the side of my garage, folding mirrors is preferable...

Hi guys, despite the negative reaction to any discount from the dealers (see separate thread), I'm still pushing ahead (following advise from the other thread mentioned) but I'm trying to rationalise my engine choice. I had originally thought I would go for the 1.4 TFSI 122ps, however the wife...

Hi all, as some of you may know I was looking to start some negotiations with a dealer on an A3 sportback. I've been waiting on actually negotiating due to the fact that we are actually looking for 2 cars, one for the wife as well, and she likes the A1 S-Line. However due to the fact she has a...

Sorry for asking yet another question.... lol I'm trying to ascertain exactly what the £295.00 for the adaptive headlights buys you ? In the Brochure, it mentions that the headlamps swivel in reaction to movements of the steering wheel, but it also say this: "navigation or speed-dependent...

Hi all, I have a quick question on the climate control in the new A3 which my dealer has been unable to answer. My last 2 cars have been VW's both with the dual zone climate control option, and with the VW system, you can "link" both the passenger and drivers side temperatures together, so that...

Sorry guys another question. Having never had a car before with keyless access, I'm debating if this option is worth the £425 Audi are asking for it ? For those of you that have it, how does the locking / unlocking actually work and what are the keys like (i.e. do they still have a pop up blade...

Hi guys, as you may have read in some earlier posts, I'm getting ready in the next month or so, to pull the trigger on a S-Line Sportback. With the exception of the engines (see other thread), I'm pretty sure of my spec (as I like my toys and luxury), but the one thing I'm not decided about is...

Hi Guys, I'm going to a dealer over the weekend to test drive an A3 with the 2.0 TDI (150ps) engine. I expect it to drive quite similar (in respect to outright performance) as my current 2.0 TDI VW Scirocco, and that's the engine I was going for. Unfortunately they don't have a 1.4 TFSI for...

Hi guys, was talking to a mate of mine this morning who's just ordered a MK7 Golf with the entry level 1.4 engine, and he tells me that these entry level motors come with a live rear axle (i.e. torsion beam), and the more usual multi link fully independant suspensions are kept back for the more...

Can anyone with the S-Line package confirm if there are storage bins under the seats, and how big they are. Had these on my previous Golf, and whilst they were tiny on the VW, they were great for bulbs, fuses, pens etc. Unfortunatley one of the bad points about the Scirocco is lack of storage...

Hi all, Was on the Audi UK site earlier this morning, and unless I'm dreaming (since the last time I visited), the range of engine and transmission options for the sportback has now been extended. Previous it was the following available Manual transmission 1.4 TFSI 122ps...
