    Road noise

    At the moment, I'm using both my A3 and A4 until the lease on the latter ends in a week or so. One thing I've noticed is much more road noise in the A3. It's the only area I've found in which the A4 feels more sorted. Mind you, it's not that the A3 is bad or that the noise is particularly...

    Detailing the A3

    Following on from the discussion about wheel cleaning, I'm interested to know what plans everyone has for detailing their new A3. I started last week removing the wheels. They had a good wash inside and out, Autosmart Tardis to remove any tar or road film and a coat of Chemical Guys Wheel...

    Hill Assist / Hill Hold Assist

    I thought I'd clarify this to help anyone thinking of adding the option to their order. I couldn't get much sense from my local Audi dealer when I placed my order. I believe all A3s come with Hill Assist which holds the car for a few seconds to avoid roll back when moving off from standstill...

    Bluetooth Phone

    Just noticed today that my phone doesn't ring through the speakers on the A3 like it does in my A4. It just uses the phone ringer. This is extremely quiet especially when left in my jacket pocket. Is this normal? I've looked through the settings and can't find anything to change. P.S. Phone...

    2.0 TDi Oil Specification

    Does anyone have a handbook handy to look at the specification of the oil for the new 2.0 TDi 150 engine? Is it 507.00 ? I've got plenty left in my garage which I'll move on if it's no good for the new car. Time to clear out and make space!

    Sportback order gone in....

    Thanks to everyone for taking the time to answer my questions. I was going to order this week from 'Drive the Deal' but one of the dealers I've used in the past came very close to the price and their service has always been superb. Details are: A3 Sportback 2.0 TDi S-Line in Daytona Grey Bang...

    Auto dimming door mirrors

    I've got these on my A4 and they're superb. However, the new A3 price list only shows the dimming mirror on the driver's side. This seems a little pointless to me as surely you'd get dazzled through the passenger mirror. Can anyone who has them confirm that it's just the driver's mirror that...

    Bang & Olufsen v's Audi Sound System

    Currently speccing up an A3 S-Line to order and can't decide on which audio option to go for. I had an A3 Sport on test from the dealer which apparently had the standard system. It was a little disappointing compared with the sound system in my A4. The demo A3 had a sub in the spare wheel but...
