If it's an s-tronic it should be changed together with a new filter every 60000km (~40k miles?) The manual option I don't now the intervals of. But rather change it for peace of mind if you dont know how old the oil is.

+ Rear diff oil. Bevel box oil.

It sounds like it could be the ignition lock or a simple thing like an ground connection to chassis somewhere. But, as paddy says, check the fault codes first.

Am I thinking right that if it's only in first and second gear it shouldn't be the transfer box?

I serviced the Haldex with new oil+filter at 46k miles. At 25k miles the oil was changed at Audi. This is how bad it looked:

Unfortunately, it is a window frame out job. Here is a guide how to remove the frame:

I'm running 8x18 et43 rims with 225/40 tyres and they are almost flush with the fender on my 2012 S3. The S3 have the same fenders Front/back as the A3. Et40 is just sticking out 3mm more and will be perfect flush I think!

Good question. The insulation isn't heavy. Probably just a couple of hundred grams. So it chouldn't be about that. And its not like its going to melt because of the temperature from the 5 cyl compared to the 4 cyl. Could be as you say but in the end it is a decition from Audi related to cost...

Have you pressure washed the engine?

Interesting as I don't have these air guides in my front inner fender shown here in red. As I look it up there is two versions of the front inner fender. Cars built before/after 18/9-2017 have different ones as seen in the pic below: Then it's a cheap and great upgrade to mount both...
