Hi guys, little old thread, but maybe someone can help. :) Currently I have MMI with navigation and two SD card slots (I believe it's Panasonic) and smaller screen. Also I have "black controls" on central console and speakers with subwoofer at trunk (trying to post as much details as possible...

First measurements (66cm front / 64cm back) are measured: floor - wheel arch. What do you mean by "floor - ground"? Car hasn't been damaged or in crash, no. I was also thinking maybe someone put wrong (non S-Line / sport) springs upfront, that's probably only reasonable explanation, because...

Yeah...Mine looks like AlS3BE's (maybe even little more lowered at back), nose is 2cm higher and it is noticable without measuring also. Maybe has something to do that yours is sedan, and mine and AlS3BE's is sportback, I don't know.

Thanks friend! I guess you have stock S-Line suspension? I was just wondering, would fitting Eibach Pro Kit (or similar) fix this? Should then car be lower upfront or?

Another question (since I can't edit my last post)...What does painted dots mean? I have two blue and one white dot painted on front springs and mark "MUW" - unfortunately I can't se whole serial number of springs since the mark is facing upwards :openmouth:

Sure about that? So far I haven't seen A3 8v with this wierd issue on roads, they're always either "very high" (I guess standard suspenion) or they sit "lower at front"...

Hi guys, I have a question about springs for mine A3 8V Sportback 2.0TDI (110KW). I noticed that my car is higher upfront then it is at back for approx. 2cm. I measured the car's height and it came like this: 1. From the ground: Front left 66 cm Front right 66 cm Rear left 64,7 cm Rear right...

Hi, I'm trying to find how much liters of coolant fits in my Audi A3 8V Sportback 2.0TDI CRBC (manual)? On some web pages is stated 7.5l, and the other ones 12l - what's the actual and correct capacity of coolant for this engine? Another question, which brand of oil - excluding Fuchs/Millers...

Hi Nessy, is 2l of oil enough for A3 8V 2.0TDI manual gearbox or should I buy more? I saw that gearbox has capacity of 2.3l.. And can someone please recommend which brand to choose? In Croatia we don't have Fuchs oil, only Castrol, Febi and Meyle 75W80 (from "better" manufacturers).

Probably good to mention, my unit was retrofitted. Originally I had manual climate control...

Hi, is there a way to reset automatic climate control? Issue I'm having started 3 weeks ago; when I turn on the ignition, climate control automatically closes fresh air lid (as I pushed recirculation button, but I didn't). As soon as I click button to turn off climate control and right away to...

Good idea, will check this if the label is visible without putting the car on jack stand.

Hi everyone, I'm shopping for front shock absorbers for Audi A3 Sportback 2013. 8V (2.0TDI 110KW, CRBC S-Line). Since I bought Sachs for rear suspension 2 years ago, I'm gonna go with Sachs for front suspension. Problem is that Sachs offers two different widths, 50mm and 55mm for front...

Thanks for answer! Good advice, will try silicone spray, but noise from my car comes from both sides only on speed bumps, so I'm 99% sure the problem is in those bushes. But the thing that worries me is that I cannot find spare ones nowhere, only the whole sway bar...

Hi, I own A3 8V '13 2.0TDI and recently I have problem with "creaking" front sway bar. It creaks when I pass speed bumps (I usually drive over them pretty slowly). According to my mechanic, problem is in bushes (rubber part on left and right side of sway bar) which has worn out. My question is...
