Hello all. I have left this a bit late but is there anything I need to know about the A1 1.4TFSI s-tronic 125hp sport. I am looking to get one tomorrow as I have sold my A3 saloon. Are there any weak points/recalls I need to be aware of ? Does the car have a timing chain or belt (change every x years) ? It is on 16 inch alloys so hoping it rides better than a previous A1 (13 plate sport, I think it was on 17s) I once had. How often should the gearbox oil and filter be changed ? Is it safe to tune the 1.4 (to 150hp/270nm from 125hp/200nm) and the gearbox - thinking avon tuning ? Are there poly bush kits available to help the steering/suspension or was this improved from the 13 plater (found the steering in the 13 plater a bit lacking) ? Any thoughts greatly appreciated. Cheers, Dan.
