Just a heads up on the amount of police mobile speed trap activity around at present. Just been up in Nottingham in my 8V this weekend and passed through several sneaky mobile traps: A46 between Coventry and M40 southbound - on bridge (yesterday afternoon) A6003 Oakham, Leicestershire. Well...

My 2013 A3 Sportback Sport has filament DRL's and Halogen headlights. Even Ford Focus's have LED's now, so I feel at little short changed! Quick question, can Xenon's and LED DRL's as fitted on the S-line be retrofitted and anyone know the cost? I had a loaner S-line 8V for two weeks and I...

Just a quick note to owners of the 8V to be very careful with the aluminium body panels as they dent very easily. These components are the front wings and the bonnet. I had a stupid mishap last week with my A3. Ran out the house in a downpour, slipped on my slippery sealed block paved driveway...

Evening everyone. Anyone know whether the 8V A3 MMI automatically updates for a time change or do I have to do anything to set BST? Thanks!

Couldn't believe that my Audi Nav system doesn't know where Southam is. The M40 has closed on Sunday so tried to re-programme the navigation to take me from Coventry to Southam (a small Warwickshire town!) and the navigation system didn't have it listed. As I didn't have a postcode, I ended up...

Does anyone know whether the start stop feature has a maximum 'stopped' duration as my car re-starts itself automatically all by itself without depressing the clutch after a minute of so of bring stopped. I will time it sometime. It's almost uncanny sometimes it does it right when the lights...

Hi, I need some touch-up paint (Monsoon Grey) for my A3 SB to touch in a few stone chips on the front bumper. I guess I have two choices: order the OEM touch-up or try one of the lower cost options on the web. Some of these look a bit dubious. Have any of you had any experiences with non-OEM...

Quick question on tyre pressures. My car has ContiSport Contact 5 225/45R17 91Y AO and from the chart in the FAQ (and on the side of the driver's door) I don't really know what the pressures should be, as my specific tyre is not shown. I am running the tyres at 35psi front and 32psi back at...

Hi, Just wondering whether someone can confirm whether "comfort" mode on the A3 2.0tdi Sport drive select makes any changes to the suspension. From browsing the manual and the web there seem to be conflicting statements. One article says suspension is softened, but I find this hard to believe...

I've just bought an Audi A3 2.0TDI Sport 150 8V Sportback and did my first long journey in it this week. Love the car, but the tyre noise is very disappointing for a premium hatchback, much worse than my wife's Golf Mk VII. I also hadn't realised just how hard the ride is from my six mile test...
