Hi guys, so I picked up my S3 8P from the dealers yesterday it's an absolute tool but it has some 'teething issues'. Here she is: http://www.mpowercars.co.uk/vehicle/audi-s3-black-edition-sportback-s-tronic-2010/
Prior to sale communication has been good.. However..
It seems like the wheels doesn't have secure locking nuts so anyone could turn up and take the wheels off with minimal hassle. There's no locking nut key in the boot, phoned dealers to chase them up on this yesterday evening, didn't get back to me, there wasn't many about on site and it's a family run business so, I'll give them the benefit of doubt but I expect a response by today the latest without me phoning. If they've misplaced it then they'll have to sort that out from their own pockets.. Surely?
Miliage online it was advertised at 29000 miles, when I picked it up and drove it back home I noticed it showed as having 30700 miles on the clock, surely this isn't acceptable? I guess it will be hard reclaiming any money back from them about this issue. seeing as they have already got their money..
Now I've got it, I have 3 months warranty but there warranty is in house so any issues I'd have to bring the car all the way back up to them. I'm going to bring the car to a specialist garage for a health check is there anything I should tell them to look out for/check? I was thinking critical components such as haldex system, engine and so on..
The tracking, going over 80 mph on the motorway the steering was vibrating so it seems tracking is a bit off as it was ever so slightly pulling to the left, when I let go of the steering wheel.. I'll get the tracking looked at, can I expect them to cover the cost of this and surely it would be unreasonable for them to expect me to bring back the car to carry out such work?
The RNSE nav system, I've connected my phone to the system, you can make out going calls using my phone, however using the steering wheel controls to make outgoing calls it doesn't work and I can't play music off my phone from the likes of YouTube so it seems like I'd need to buy an external Bluetooth setup (ad2p) to get things working as it should? Glove compartment has the ami cable but it's for the old iPhone setup and won't fit phones like the iPhone 6.
Apart from this, everything is fine.
Many thanks.
