I bought a 2018 RS3 a little over two years ago. I traded in my 2011 Mk6 GTI that I had also bought new back in 2010. I never really loved the RS3, not the way I expected to love a car like the RS3 and not the way I loved my old GTI. Initially I was super excited and happy of course, but as the...

If you go through the history it shows you ever change you ever made. I would go through and make sure everything you did you then undid.

I'm here on the west coast of Canada, we usually get very little snow so getting winter tires fitted isn't really something everyone does. Last night we had a bit of snow and I'm wondering what to expect with the RS3 running on summer P Zero tires. Is it going to be really bad or will quattro...

Of course, here's the instructions I used: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/a4-b9-platform-discussion-212/guide-enable-google-earth-traffic-canada-spec-audi-2912779/

That's unfortunate, hopefully they don't get around to FL cars for a while. Street View always seemed useless to me, I can just look out the window and see the same thing. :D What didn't work for you? Everything I tried on my 2018 RS3 seemed to work.

Finally got my dongle! Promptly enabled Google Earth maps and it'a definitely nice to have. I'd forgotten but that was actually a selling point of the car for me (before I realized it wasn't available in my region). I also tried enabling the Audi heartbeat sound when you turn the car on and...

I was considering the Golf R before I decided to shell out more for an RS3. I know all are MQB cars but paying $50k for a VW Golf just seemed wrong. This would naturally cost more so, no thanks. I'm not a brand snob but we've all been trained by marketing to a certain extent and that much money...

Why would a phone be inadequate for showing GPS speed? It's should be as accurate as any other speedometer which uses GPS data. Plenty of apps that can do this for free. Here's a good one for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codesector.speedview.free

Two months in and I'm still waiting for my dongle to arrive.

I keep voice guidance on mute, if I'm ever wondering what she has to say there's a dedicated button on the steering wheel to make her talk. :D I guess if I drove in unknown locales I might have it on but I usually find audio cues more distracting than helpful.

Mine is the same. Sometimes it stops doing anything and I have to go into the MMI and reset the function.

Having read about the handling issues of the PFL, I would definitely rather have the FL even if it's won't pop as much. I've never driven a PFL but the new cars have so much grip it's unreal. Definitely no understeer with the fatter shoes up front.

None. I was lucky to get one when I did considering I didn't order one. The RS3 has never been available here, and even then they had just landed a week prior.

It's no Nardo but it's okay. Just joking, that colour looks beautiful. Probably what Ara blue should have been.

You can do the same thing manually. When you come to a stop, activate the electronic parking brake, once you apply the gas pedal the brake will be automatically released.

That's terrible, my sympathies. Good news is Nardo is a pretty easy colour to work with from what I gather. My Nardo RS3 was hit on day 3 and the repaint is quite good. I'm not in Blighty so I can't recommend a specific shop, just do some research and find a reputable one. I don't think going...

I actually watched it, I have no life and I'm still addicted to any RS3 video. I can see where he's coming from, the RS3 isn't exactly hardcore but isn't that the point? It's a sleeper sports sedan, it's not supposed to chop your head off every time you step on the gas pedal. I don't disagree...

We're talking the saloon/sedan here, it's not a hatch! I see what you're saying but to me the RS3 is a step above your typical boy racer cars like GTI/Rs, STIs and the like.

You guys are talking about the new stock alloys for the sedan? I quite like them with gloss black inlays on my car. They aren't the most 'special' looking wheels but they fit the sedan nicely I think. I definitely prefer them to the rotors which looks kind of boy racer-ish to me.

I would pick black optics with Nardo, general consensus seems to be that but it's a personal choice. Also I would choose sports exhaust and magnetic ride over driver's assistance. With the kind of car the RS3 is I would rather have sportier options over tech options if I had to pick one. You...
