Not owner but since I've driven one, I'd like to share this: As I was already used to the petrol version I thought the TFSIe felt kind of vague in comparison. You can feel the car is heavier. Especially the steering was disappointing compared to petrol version. Diesel isn't that much heavier...

This is not Audi related problem, it's shiny black plastic related one. I've had 3 cars now with those same elements and they had swirl marks on them even when the car was still sitting in dealer's delivery room. Just look closely to any car with those and you can see it's the same. Trying to...

My car doesn't have any interior options other than sport seats and it definitely feels like higher quality product than Golf. I thought maybe the facelift would bring the Golf up to Audi level but that's not what happened here.

Sat in the FL Golf yesterday. It was the most basic version you can get and I gotta say I wasn't impressed at all. In pictures even the basic trim looks quite nice but in person it felt surprisingly cheap and instantly put me off. The GTI and R variants will surely have better quality feel but I...

Guess it is, then it's a software bug when it doesn't sound :tearsofjoy:

How about previous gen BMW 7 series facelift? Never forget the shock when I first saw the pictures. There I got the point though, the original one was totally invisible. The facelift for 8V basic model was very nice but I never liked the S-line front with the double chin at all. I think C7 A6...

I really do like the looks of the 8Y - the original design. Same goes with Q8. Haven't seen the facelifted version of either in real life yet but I see similar problems in the pictures of both. I don't get the new front styling details Audi's been using lately. Instead of being sharp and snappy...

Looks like something I could have easily done by myself, paid to dealer instead... Today I did a thorough wash and wax, also tried to hand polish some of the most visible scratches. That didn't do much but at least something. Always hard to believe how much dirt there's still remaining after...

Does it sound when stationary or while driving? Sometimes I hear beep after driving and leaving the car, always thought it's just some electical component and it's normal. Also the previous car (earlier 8Y) did that.

You've had lots of concerns, but has any of those been defect by the factory in the end? I've got this saying, what's common to all the cars? All of them are crap.

So instead of trying to rub it off in the first place you wrote seven posts about it on here? :tearsofjoy:

Tried to watch that video yesterday but couldn't. The "journalist" is so damn horrible, literally everything is super amazing from start to finish. I recommend to watch without sound if you want to see the visuals. I don't understand why they don't offer the silver anymore. With the new...

Possible it won't get off if it's infused, I've heard of those. Show it to some expert.

Could be defect, could be infused acid or something from bird poo

As it's still under warranty and not caused by external factor they should fix it. Warranty covers paint defects too if it's because of a flaw in the painting process. Bird poo might not be impossible though. I've heard some cases where it affected deeper than the clearcoat, after polishing the...

Finland with its 5,5 million inhabitants is saving the entire climate of the planet all alone, so we have very effective taxes to restrain our will to buy cars with high emissions. The CO2 limit is very low and the tax progression very steep. The price before tax for S3 is 50 400 € and the...

Prices out in Finland too, starting from about 69 000 €. Did a quick configuration adding just some kind of necessary stuff and it says 77 700 €. The performance exhaust (doesn't say it's Akrapovic, guess it still is) costs 5140 here - without a tax. Add it to configuration an price goes up 7000...

Repaired a windscreen stone chip for the first time ever. A small visible hole-like mark is still there but much better than the original sun-refracting linear hit mark. I got my first stone to windscreen during the very first highway run the day I got the car. Luckily the chip was almos...

Money well spent... I don't get that, why even offer an upgrade that pricey? If you have the money to throw in, you'll definitely not be after an S3.

I think the mudflaps are the same for Saloon and Sportback. My first 8Y had the mudflaps already fitted by Audi, I think back then they did that to all cars that came to Finland as all cars seemed to have those, liked it or not. My current car came without, and it was a first thing to do to get...
