    1.5 cod manual

    I'm nearly a year into owning a 68 plate sline a3 1.5 tfsi. I cannot say I dont have kangaroo style starts as when I pulling away slowly with low revs it does it. However I can say if you drive it differently, ie a few more revs and pulling away quicker it goes away. I can also say either 85% of...

    Please be careful

    Sorry to hear that's happened. Regarding the window side of it, I'm an ex Firefighter and have personally seen this done to gain entry to a house by a Window fitter. It doesn't take long at all and isn't too difficult to perform with the right tools plus it can be difficult to see once reinstated.

    Thanks for your reply and clarifying the tone on lock and mirrors. Can I ask what year is your a3/s3? I might make an enquiry with the local dealer to see if they know anything.

    So Carista support have finally come back to me stating I need memory seats to have the mirror dip. I have also now done the indicator change to 4x flashes and set the beep on unlock. The odd thing is the beep on lock shows in the MMI but unlock doesn't... Going to have another look at what...

    Looking swapping to a 8v S-line

    Hi I have read this and experienced this in the Sport I took for a test drive. Luckily mine didnt do this when I took it for the test drive and doesn't do it currently so suspect it didnt have the issue or has had the update applied.

    Looking swapping to a 8v S-line

    I have tried it with it central, put the car to reverse then selecting the mirror, then dipping the mirror. I have tried it with the engine running and off... Ill try again as I had the Dongle attached and wonder if it needs to be disconnected to take effect once set...

    Looking swapping to a 8v S-line

    I just dont seem to be able to set the mirror. I wonder if I have set "too" many options in the Carista for the dipped mirror for it to work... I might try one at a time...

    Carista App Now Avaliable For the 8V A3/S3 - PFL & FL Covered

    Further to my post above, I do not have folding mirrors so looking through some previous posts I may not have the required parts to set this. Also I have noticed that setting items with the App doesn't always take effect, for instance the beep on lock.

    As I'm getting rid of my 8P I will be looking to sell my spare set of SE 16" alloy wheels. I have no photos at the moment, I will need to check for Mark's plus gauge the current tyres for any life left. If anyone is interested let me know before I look at putting then on facebook and Ebay.
