    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    Yeah, I can hear the farting/vibrating sound with the boot closed. I’ve just accepted that the whole system is cheap crap and coupled with a poorly built interior. The interior would only vibrate/rattle no matter what sound system was installed, so I won’t be buying Audi again.

    Audi Sound System

    I took my edition 1 into the dealership not long after I got it as the sub was vibrating/distorting. It was especially noticeable at low volumes when the engine was off. The tech told me it was the air flaps that were vibrating next to the sib and that the sub was fine. I don’t believe it for...

    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    I find that the the sub setting actually adjusts the speakers in doors? It’s as if the setting for the sub and bass do the same thing.

    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    I thought I had it sussed but I’m pretty disappointed with it. The bass and subwoofer setting seems to be the same thing so I don’t know why there’s an option to adjust both? I’m interested to know if anyone has noticed that the bass and sub controls control the same frequency? All of the door...

    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    So the mechanic at the dealership explained that there are vents next to the sub which let air escape when closing doors. These are apparently rattling with the force of air from the sub. This rattle/fart noise happens even at the lowest volume, so I'm not sure if this is the issue or not, but...

    Anyone had faulty climate control button?

    Glad you got it fixed with no issues. I'm having the same issues with my 2021 A3. Drivers side temp won't go back up on some days and other days it's fine.

    Bang & Olufsen Premium Sound System

    I have to say that I spoke to soon on the b & o. I think it’s finally broke in as I’m actually pretty impressed with it. The bass is really good and gets very low. It feels like all of the speakers are working together now, as before it seemed like it was only the centre channel which was...

    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    Hey, I didn’t get a fix but the sound has improved drastically! The bass is a lot deeper and the clarity is way better. I’m very happy with it although there is a slight issue with the sub which has been recognised as a fault so is due to be looked at by Audi soon. The only thing that is really...

    Bang & Olufsen Premium Sound System

    To be honest, I would have expected B&O to outperform or the above mentioned brands as they are highly regarded, but my feeling is that the only thing B&O about the system is the name on the grill. I wouldn’t be surprised if these were cheap speakers with their name slapped on them with a juicer...

    Bang & Olufsen Premium Sound System

    I personally think it’s garbage. I had the Harmon Kardon in my M140 and that blows it away. The HK in the 3 series is even better again. I have an A3 and when you turn it up all the doors rattle too. So disappointed with it all as I love loud music but can’t bare rattling interior. The bass...

    Real World Mpg of A3 8Y

    35 TFSI A 2.8 journey to my work which consists of around 8 junctions/roundabouts I can get up to 36 if I really try. That’s usually without stopping the whole way. Normally I’m lucky if I get 30mpg. Pretty disappointed with the mpg to be honest. I came from a BMW M140 which had a 3.0 lump in...

    B&O Suboofer Issue.

    So I’ve had the car in at the dealership and initially the mechanic didn’t notice it. I let another mechanic have a listen and he heard it straight away. Car is booked in for longer to give the guys a chance to fix investigate the issue and hopefully fix it. ps. It’s more noticeable with the...

    A3 1.5L TFSI Jerking

    I found that the car is very difficult to control from a standing start. Like I was struggling to find the biting point. To negate this issue, I changed the driving mode to Auto and since then the car has been so much easier to drive. Pulling away in 1st is smoother…not perfect but a big...

    A3 1.5L TFSI Jerking

    I can’t believe how bad my fuel consumption is on my 1.5 edition 1. I came from a BMW M140 which has a 3 litre lump in it and I get the same fuel consumption as that! I also had the 1.4tfsi before that so expected this 1.5 to be similar - I cant believe the difference. The 1.4 was a cracking...
