Has someone experienced with Bluetooth hands-free? How is that now exactly, I then need the specific mobile phone adapter actually to make phone calls, because the bluetooth standard would have to be generally accepted by the hands-free!? Has anyone already this hands-free in operation??? I’m talking about the standard hands-free (which supposedly includes bluetooth function since 04) Would be grateful for a few test reports from you!

Hello together, when I turn the steering wheel of my A3 while standing on rough ground surface you hear regular sounds (dongdong) similar to a metal spring. What can that be again? Has anyone observed the same phenomenon? mfgrelentless

Hello together, recently decided to buy A3 and read various posts here in the forum. I am still unreliable with the outside color. Sure, it is a matter of taste, but I wanted to ask you what experiences you have made with Mauritius blue (concerning dirt, the small scratches are visible, etc.)? Unfortunately I have not seen one in this color in natura yet. Akoyasilber I also find very nice, but there are already some of them… l for your opinion 🙂

Today I rushed over the A96 from Lindau towards Munich. At the height of Oberpfaffenhofen the car hopped to such an extent that I now have the faxes thick. I am straight back to my dealer and swept him because of this sch…. I only said that AUDI is ade and I want to have an offer for the new gulf with the same motorization and equipment (though not as nice as AUDI but no hopping) and that I don’t want to hear anything from AUDI anymore. I am so full of the muzzle, the glau bt me no one… I have to sell now only (easier said than done). New price for me was: exactly 29,100 €. I have now 2800 km on it. Equipped with: Xenon, Concert CD, air conditioning, foldable and heatable mirrors, 4 spokes multifunction steering wheel, Park accousstic system, light sensor Ambition equipment What can I demand? Private & dealer (if buying a new golf with him!)

In October 2003 I was able to receive my new A3 (2.0 FSI). My great enthusiasm for the vehicle, however, was relativized, since the automatic air conditioning has an unpleasant or unpleasant speciality. At outside temperatures in the range of below 12°C, about 5 minutes after the start of the journey, very warm (approx. 35°C) air is brought into the interior during a good 30 minutes, resulting in an unpleasant overheating. I have set the lowest possible temperature (16°C), the car is located at home and at work in a garage. After a longer driving time and even at warmer outside temperatures, the automatic air conditioning is correct. Since I use my car mainly for the journey to work and back (about 20 – 40 minutes driving time), this phenomenon is very unpleasant. That I use my car several times at outside temperatures around the surface ierpunkt had to open the window in order to achieve an acceptable indoor climate, seems rather grotesque for a car in this price range. The car has been in the workshop five times since last October. Unfortunately, changes in the settings as well as the replacement of the control unit did not improve the situation. Is this a single problem or have other similar experiences? I am grateful for your feedback!

Hoi, I wanted to ask if it is possible with any of the Audi radios to use the function CD-TEXT. Unfortunately I don’t know if the factory changer supports this at all, if no, then it already fails. In the meantime every 0815-supermarket radio has CD-TEXT and I miss this function very much in the car, I just can’t remember which CDs are in the changer, let alone the title sequence on each CD… If it’s not possible with the radios, little can be done ins the Navi Plus something in style (from me also disc name preset, that should also function without CD-TEXT capable changers)…. da_baitsnatcha

Hi, does one of you have an idea where you can get the original chrome mirrors (e.g. from the S4 are the same as with the new A3)? On E-Bay is only Schei.. and if then only the matte ones and they I find net so intoxicating. There are also the replicas. Does one of you have experience there? I don’t want to stick something like that on. But maybe there are those that are very similar to the original ones?

Hi. Does anyone know what changes the A3 model change in the 22nd KW will bring to the 2005 model? I asked the friendly one and he had no idea or didn’t want to tell me. It’s about whether I should wait for the new model with my order or take the 2004 model. I know, for example, that there should be a rain sensor and additional aluminium applications in the interior. (I believe at least!) Greetings muelsen

Hi together, I picked up my new A3 2.0 TDI ambition yesterday. I had ordered an S-line suspension, but am not sure if it is in the air. How can I find out that the topic has already been dealt with, but the tip with the yellow dampers doesn’t really bring me any further, because my dealer also had a normal ambition with yellow dampers. I also don’t find the short PDS in the paper in the trunk, however e There is also none of the other abbreviations of my equipment (e.g. air conditioning or radio system.) Can anyone help me here?

Hello all, I would like to hear your opinion about the following problem: I would like to have the new A3, I drove both the 2.0FSI and the 2.0TDI From the engine, spritziness the diesel absolutely tells me. Now the problem: Since my wife drives the car to 85%(I have a company car) she drives so max.30KM a day with it. Yes now you can say why then a car and even more so an expensive one. We leave all this out (purchase, tax), it is harmful for the I always only drive so short distances? On weekends we will of course drive more with it. I would like to know that from you. In advance thank you Gruss Michael
