I am thinking of changing my 2013 S3 8V so yesterday I decided to visit my local Audi dealer to get an offer.
He told me A3/S3/RS3 production has stopped for many configurations as all of you know, but he brought me some bad news regarding Audi S models.
S4 and S5 petrol engines will be discontinued, so the next S4 and S5 will go with a diesel engine. a diesel engine!!! in this case with a 3.0 TDI (Biturbo I think) 347bhp more or less.
And I think it would be the same for the S6 and S7. Only RS models will go with petrol engine.
The good news (for me) is that the S3 will keep its petrol engine, but with a power decrease to meet the new WLTP emission regulation (Euro6). The S3 MY19 will go with the same 2.0TFSI (221 instead of 228kW).
He also said that there is a rumor regarding a new facelift for the A3 in 2019. Considering that the new A1 and Q3 will go with multiple touch screens, the A3 will be behind in technology terms. What do you think?
So that's all from my knowledge for the moment. Any new information I get it I will posted here.
Thanks!
