  3. Hi all need some help if possible I have a 2017 Audi A5 coupe 2.0td slim I have a problem with the air con When I turn it on it doesn't get as cold as it should be you can feel a little difference in temp but only on the drives side and at the rear the passenger won't push any air con out just normal air I know it not the gas as I had it re gassed about a month and a half ago with no issues I have ran a scan on the car and I do get a fault but got know idea what it is please see picture attached Any help would be great thanks
  4. Warning points now issued.
  5. Hello Andrew, You seemed to have joined and posted at the same time, and not returned since to read and acknowledge the advice you asked for. Any particular reason?
  6. I ask, since you joined and posted on the same day, and are yet to read the advice you asked for. Please read the initial pre - posting request referring to just that situation.
  7. Who are you buying it from Riyss? Whoever it is, they are trying to sell you a vehicle which is legally unroadworthy. Surely this is sufficient causation for you to have your deposit refunded -?
  8. Today
  9. Impressive. Hard to believe it only cost $7000.
  10. Thanks Cliff. Yeah I wouldn't expect it to be cheap tbh.🙂 Having to just put up with it for now until it can be seen, so will just be pleased to get it sorted.

    Thank you Richard. I very much did have DAB for three years then it just dropped off suddenly in March or April. All of my saved DAB Radio stations still exists in my 'Memory'. The coincidence of me losing my DAB when everyone else did is too great to ignore, but perhaps it IS the DAB antenna ???? So that may be Audi Barnstaple and a large bill then ! Your help is much appreciated, thank you.
  12. No, since they presumably have been on the car for a long time so you would have noticed a noise long ago if they were responsible for it. You said, or at least implied, that the hum began recently, and the only other recent changes you have told us of are the front tyres and a CV joint. Constant velocity joints don't hum, but tyres do, so I have no doubt that one or both of the new front tyres is the cause of the noise. Have you tried my suggestion of fitting the spare wheel as a test?
  13. From that you it looks as if you don't have DAB on the set despite the DAB bit at the top. That suggests to me that you might well have a fault with the MMI or it isn't a DAB capable set. Have you had DAB reception in the past? There was a known software glitch in the 2016 A3 a few years ago that meant DAB just disappeared. Unfortunately it is a dealer only solution. Anyway on the Q3 the process is to go to the Waveband option and select the waveband you want. Here mine shows DAB, FM and MW (aka AM) as available. From this screen select the waveband you want and the update station list option is at the top of the list. I've selected DAB and as you can see the update option is there.
  14. Would the unmatched at the back not make the humming also ?

    Thanks again Matthew, I did read the entire thread, will do so again, but seem to remember there were some A6's in there possibly ? Have a good Sunday and thanks again....
  16. I'm after a PFL B5 A4/S4 drivers wing, preferably in noggy blue, but will take any colour if the sing is solid with no bad rust issues.
  17. Perhaps it’s worth speaking with some other A3 owners, without scrolling back through this post I believe it was only Q3 & A1’s affected as they share the same/similar head unit. Either way the problem seems to have rectified itself now, so it may be coincidence that you lost stations at the same time and may be a genuine fault with your A3?

    Sadly that doesn't work, it just singles out the top most station ! I lost DAB in March/April when everyone else did so I am sure it's the same fault. Very annoying and don't want to risk spending £160 with Main dealer only to have them fob me off like others in this thread ! I have done a reboot of the MMi, but also no joy from that. Grrrrrrrr
  19. Not too serious, but also not cheap to fix depending on what needs to be renewed.
  20. It's about £1700 Gareth. A considerable sum to lose if I am understanding Riyss properly.
  21. On the Q3 if you press the memory tab it takes you to the memory(your stored stations) if you press memory again it takes you back to the full station list.

    Hi Paul. Thank you for your reply. I've had the car three years but the significant thing to say is my DAB dropped, stone cold dead, in March or April this year, which seems to be when everyone else's did ?

    Thank you Richard. I can't seem to be able to navigate to a list of all stations ?????? I can get only as far as here.......... confused !
  24. Thanks - that doesn't sound too serious then.....
  25. Apologies, I wasn’t aware of the deposit paid - £ equivalent? Without looking it up. Non refundable may well alter the advice given.
  26. If I understand correctly you have paid a $3000 non refundable deposit so you are committed to buying the car. Is that correct? I suggest you assess whether the total purchase cost plus the cost of necessary repairs is worthwhile, or whether you should abandon the deal and lose $3000. Only you can make that decision in the light of local car values.
  27. So you have a pair of worn out tyres at the back and two unmatched new tyres at the front? It's not worth considering any thing else until you get the tyres sorted out.
