    Audi Specifies 98 RON for UK e-trons

    This may be market specific. Mine says Minimum RON 95 inside the flap, however RON 98 is recommended.

    Audi A3 moon roof explosion

    I thought the same, 45 degrees Celsius is common in places like Saudi Arabia, but not in the early morning. I think Farenheit's your man! I would have thought that a film could have been applied to prevent the disintegration of the glass albeit not as thick/tough as that in the windscreen.

    Going away for 3 Months...

    I would recommend hooking up an intelligent charger like those made by CTEK. I've had one for many years and it has more than paid for itself several times over.

    is there any pictured diy tutorial on how to get to the fuel pump?

    Oh yes, plenty of hazards down that path. They do state "The repair information in this document is intended for use only by skilled technicians who have the proper tools, equipment and training to correctly and safely maintain your vehicle.

    I had that problem at first until I realised that I wasn't holding down long enough :blush:

    Audi Specifies 98 RON for UK e-trons

    Following a check on erWin prompted by @visionthing post regarding "Audi UK - TSB - Replacement of fuel delivery unit", I downloaded my Vehicle Specific Information and among the Pr numbers (all 184 of them). I noted Pr code 0U0 - Fuel Quality 98 RON. I had been using various fuels depending on...

    3-door vs 5-door - owner opinions? any regrets/issues?

    No choice in my case David. The e-tron was only available as a Sportback. In any case I would not have chosen a 3-door as I would not have been open the driver's door when I'm in the garage. The longer door on the 3-door variant needs a considerably wider gap to provide space to get in and out.

    A3 e-tron first impressions

    I manage to charge mine of my solar PV at home most of the time. The Audi supplied EVSE is an excellent if not properly understood piece of kit. It enables us Audi owners (and probably VW and porsche owners too) to connect up our vehicles to a wide range of voltage supplies from 110 VAC to 415...

    A3 e-tron first impressions

    A nice write up Peter. I concur with your observations although you'll find that you can't actually set the interior temperature from the app, you can switch the climate control on or off and it will aim to reach the pre-set temperature. I've had mine for over a year now and it still brings a...

    Dandanfings S3 build thread - pic heavy

    An interesting detailed write up Dan, but excuse the obvious question. You state in your original post that you "managed to get 5k off the list price and a stupid good finance rate", does this mean that you subsequently purchased the car outright?

    Show us Misano

    I thought it was a lovely colour when I first saw a dozen German e-tron demonstrator vehicles back in 2014. By the time I got around to ordering mine I was a bit weary of seeing every e-tron in Misano red and hence went for Scuba blue. My missus was of a similar mind to yours so it was never...

    Happy 1st Birthday and Service

    Also included in my 1st service was a check of the brake pads/linings and the tyre repair set. The free Audi Health Check appears (as per documentation check list) to be a comprehensive check of the following: Internal: Warning lamps. indicator lamps, horn, instruments, wipers and washers...

    Happy 1st Birthday and Service

    Furthermore, the motor oil specified for the e-tron is part number AG 052 167 M2. This is a special 5W-40 oil which I believe is called Special Plus and conforms to VAG Approvals 502 00 / 505 00 / 505 01. The lable states "Advanced Engine Oil for gasoline and diesel engines without LongLife...

    Happy 1st Birthday and Service

    Thanks Sandra. Yes time goes a bit too quickly these days. I was so happy to get back in the e-tron this evening. I had an A5 coupe TDI for a couple of days and hated it. The A3 e-tron still makes me smile every time I drive it. I love the convenience of having a nice warm and defrosted car in...

    Happy 1st Birthday and Service

    e-tron just back from its extended first annual service. Essentially this is just the mandatory 12 month / 9,000 mile oil change (list price approx £220), but I wanted them to check out a few issues like communication problems with the e-tron app, strange noises going from ICE to EV and no EV...

    Audi A3 illuminated door sills??

    I haven't seen them loading the transporters but I have seen them unloading. I asked my dealer to leave all the transport film stuff for my detailer to remove but I see your point. It's going in for its first service next week!
