Steve Q Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi David, welcome to the forum. You'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) sorry to hear of your issue. I've never experienced it with an Audi before but have experienced it with Fords and certain Japanese cars before. As your a3 is going in for a recall it might be worth you asking Audi to have a look got you. They'll also do a free health check on the car when it goes in. Sorry I can't help more. Cheers :) Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I can't help more. When it has happened to me on other manufacturers cars I found it was under the dash. I wonder if it's the lower dash vents? On a Suzuki I found the draft coming from around the centre console and tunnel tray (near the handbrake). But never got to the bottom exactly on this one!
