Moin Moin, after having already reported about my defects some time ago, it is now ENDLICH so far ! The leasing contract (company car) is terminated ! and the car is put again at the dealer on the yard !! Here once again “my” Mägelliste: – Mototrschäden at Km 615 wg. defective seal – engine rucks – rear flap damper – belt guide – damper HA (damper installed which in the current series can no longer be used (Härte) – seat rack klappert – instrument panel (cockpit) exchanged – GRA partly functionless – Navi time-wise failed – headlight height regulation defective – unsuccessful letter writing to Audi that was in the rough, but the hardness was that recently 4 times within a week I had to go to the Weft, because the warning lamp from the engine control lighted – according to error memory was the LMM, at Audi it was also possible to be water in the cylinder (head seal ), because the engine had to be very strong and still disappeared to the stand – still lighted up and again to the end of the brand was tested, because I had some error memory.

Hi @ all, I’d be interested in what you think of the front spoiler lip of ABT for the A3-8P ? Still ok, or already put on, or wrong ?! And what does it look like with the harmony, does you think that it also fits visually, if you don’t take side bars – so height etc. ??? Has someone already installed these and could post a few pix here – on the web the pictures to be seen are imo not meaningful enough whether it looks really good in real life 🙁 Thank you already. ps On this photo – imo – it comes – already very well:http://www.niceaudis.ch/abt/as3/as3_3.jpg

Hello together, since some have shown interest in a stronger TDI again and again, here a few infos: Had an IT training for a few employees of the Audi plant in Ingolstadt today, with the topic on the A3, two gentlemen had a training last week in Ingolstadt on the topic of engine construction: There was addressed the following, there comes in 2005 (probably to model change) a stronger TDI on the basis of the 2.0 TDI with 20 or 30 HP extra power, new pump nozzle technology and particle filter. So no CR, no five cylinder, no 2.5 TDI! So much of me, it helps some further, many greetings Birdmaster

Hello! I would like to buy the A3 as a diesel. I am actually a golf fan and am currently also driving the Golf V. Since I want to buy a diesel now, I am thinking which one is the right one for me. Since I don’t know Audi at all, it would be supi if one of you could call equipment recommendations and absolute “NOs”. Is there actually a semi-automatic air conditioning system at A, according to the Climatic in golf? Golfie 1976

Hello, I have slightly modified my boot lighting (8L), since inside are all displays etc. in red, I have also converted the lighting in the trunk to red. Purchase: 2x cold light cathode with inverter, simply connected to + and – the previous lamp, done! Cost point: 5,90 € per cold light cathode set (ebay) Image 1 at days:

Hello, I tried to work with the search here on the board, but only find fragments on my question – if the search works at all. Therefore: At a price of EUR. 3500.- for the Navi+ on the A3 I think, whether it is not useful to completely do without the multimedia and to have the devices installed later on. My question: If I order an A3 (TDI) completely without a radio, what hurdles do I have to take? Are box grids in there? Are there already cables in there for boxes, or do I have to pull everything? Do I have problems already programmed by the CAN bus later and possibly even higher costs for „Diez-Adapter? I have a reasonable MP3/CD radio (analog) with reasonable performance. (I used to have a DAB52, which was ok, apart from the DAB times). Active boxes and boom boom boombass do not have to be. As a Navi I would be sufficient a 1-DIN sound system or a system with an extended monitor (1 DIN).

Hello, I spoke yesterday with a chip tuner, which seemed very strange to me: 1. Does he do the minor job (he is a private official ) 2. Does he give me no guarantee on engine and transmission and said this would be nonsense, because you can just pull this chip box out of your own hands on the next visit to the factory city and those of Audi would not even notice it. And if a problem existed, that would be on the manufacturer’s warranty. Is a damage by chip tuning really not detectable ? The chip box (similar to the KW system) is simply switched between the spreader unit and the injection pump and changes the signals that come from the ECU. What do you think of it? The price is 500 € Interesting price but I don’t have my concerns you?

I did chiptuning last week at my a3 and was today at the audio dealer because the car under full load partly did not pull correctly, result run error memory: throttle flap potionometer and encoder, the audio dealer could not help me white, because it lies on the chip he meant, because before the chip was installed kei problem there was, that is, for me at tuner send in the control units, and wait. great ne

Servus people! Today, while parking out my verd***ten narrow parking bay with a 30-40 cm high stone edge, which is overgrown to the right by a hedge, on the side skirt just before the right rear tire tore down the black plastic part. I didn’t see anything, since the landlords can’t cut this hedge so that you can see how close you can drive it… Anyway, the part is now off, the white pens are partly still broken up in the car. Can someone tell me how expensive this part is and how elaborate it is to make it “heal” again? A part number would be perfect of course! If you don’t know which part I mean, I’m still looking for a picture of it… crap day today…

Hello! Since I will only get my A3 in about 4 weeks and unfortunately I don’t have a vehicle license yet, I have to ask you which winter tires you can drive without any registrations! Can you please tell me the possible sizes? Thank you! mfg Sunny P.S. I have already found 5 pages but nothing yet -> new thread!
