    Strange adjuster on back of washer stalk?

    The infotainment system in my 2010 8P Black Edition would read aloud incoming SMS messages. Really disappointed that the 8V S-Line I have at the moment does not.

    Suspension bushes and/or top mounts

    Hi all I own a 2014 A3 TDI S-line Sportback. I've developed a low-speed creak (over speed humps, on and off the drive, etc). Can anyone advise me what sort of job it is to replace the suspension bushes and, if needed, the front top mounts ? Also, what sort of bill I could expect ? Many thanks.

    High mileage buying advice

    Wouldn't say that 82k miles is high for a 6-year-old car. As long as it's been looked after properly it should be fine.

    Typical mileage for brake pads and discs?

    Depends on the roads you use most, but I would expect 40,000+ from a set.

    A3 3door dash rattle?

    Mine does the same intermittently. Around 1800 rpm there is a "buzz" that seems to be coming from beneath the MMI unit, behind the 2 centre vents. I imagine that it would be a major job to sort, so have left it for now. Read somewhere on here that wires inside the dashboard can come loose over...

    He should be named and shamed. . . . then de-bagged and raddished.

    Creaking/Knocking noise when steering

    Could be anti roll bar bushes. Hopefully not, as it's a major job.

    Air Con condenser - design fault??

    Hmm, the re-gas cost seems about double what I'd expect and I'm reasonably sure that the part could be obtained cheaper with some shopping around. Why are they charging you for anti freeze ?

    Air Con condenser - design fault??

    Sounds a bit steep to me. However, I have little knowledge of A5 Coupe parts, so maybe someone can provide some expertise.

    Facelift A3 8v real MPG?

    In my experience, cruise control is detrimental to MPG.

    Replacing Xenon Bulbs

    Might be an idea to take it to Audi (or reputable independent garage) and asking them to do it for you. To me the cost would be worth it - no hassle and if they break anything then they have to put it right.

    Coil overs for my PFL S3

    Someone on here mentioned Koni Active shocks recently. Apparently they transformed the driving experience for the better. Might be worth a look ?
