So basically, the seatbelt stalk unplugged itself or is it where the Audi Assist techy unplugged it?

 

Collected car today all worked fine for five miles then it's started again ,this time I filmed it and contacted the service dept again 

was asked if I would like to book it in , I told them I want it changing now and as I have filmed it they have agreed to, but I will be marking the  part so I can see if it's been replaced 

Went to drive off the other day ( seatbelt on) p/brake wouldn't release so had to manually do it ,as I drove off the seatbelt light and warning chime activated as if I wasn't wearing it

called AUDI to book it in for warranty work and as no loan car available was told to get AUDI assist out , when he arrived there was no fault stored even though it clearly does  and warning light still on ,the guy disconnected wire from the buckle and said it's the micro switch in it and to book it in for a new one 

Audi had the car for a whole day and called at nearly 5 to say we reconnected plug under seat and no fault.Wont replace it as no fault has been found or stored and have told me that I will have to bring it back again IF happens again 

Has anyone had similar faults 

thanks 

Hi 

just order an A5 coupe s line 1.8 TFSI and being a bit ocd I don't like the look of the rubber pedal so I've just got off the phone to my AUDI 

centre trying to price them up ,turns out they are only available for the AUTO not manual unless left hand drive .

How stupid is that , does anyone know where I can get some aftermarket ones 

thanks in advance

Good morning Gary , where did you get the lead with the lightning connector from so I could do the same with my I- phone. I don't know which I-pod to buy yet but I will have a look on e-bay or Amazon, will let you know how I get on, also have you got your new A3 yet?. Regards Peter .

Received lead

Charges only still no joy with artwork

Got the brochure thru post , built my new car added a few must haves

£47500

Still want one , my dealer has one in and I'm testing it out soon have to call him next week and book a slot as it's very popular

His words ,

I bet it is

Is your rattle on a brand new car Gary

Hi

Sorry for late reply I'm on holiday and not checking email to often

Yes it's a new A3 around 4 weeks now. Mine is the seat height adjuster handle

What was your rattle caused by Gary?

James

My comment was a bit misleading ,I do have a rattle but it's not the pedal it's the seat height adjuster handle

I was just letting the OP kW that she isn't Alone when it comes to rattles . Mines about 4 weeks old

I have a slight rattle but I have found out what it is . Goo job the MMI is good so I just turn it up

Hope to get it sorted

If your not happy go to another Audi dealer but don't tell them let then diagnosis problem 1st

My 1st TT had a clonking when reversing and braking they said the same

H Peter

eBay £2.69 even if it doesn't work for iPod I can charge fone

Yes had A3 for nearly a month now

Thanks Peter

I've ordered another lead that plugs into the AUDI lead so it fits the Lightning socket of the new iPhone .(they have a tiny plug now )

Being a brand new i phone it should have the newest iPod software if that works I'll just use the phone for music .

What iPod you going for , let me know if you get the album artwork displaying ,

Just noticed you have an. iPhone 5 ,have you not tried playing music via lead ??

Gary

The idea was to save money

Nice one

Please could you also tell me what iPod iPhone are you using

I know my iPod works ok nano 5 gen.

Just got iPhone 6 but it's got the Lightning connector so will need another addapter

Cheers

Update on (ADI red grommet ) lead, bitten the bullet ordered audi lead from my local dealer, coming in on Friday, will let you know how I get on with it.

Will do

Should be mid June when it's at dealers ,just waing on the call

Do you think it's worth getting an Audi original cable as opposed to one from Amazon.

It looks like original has the part numbers on it and it was £27 so not cheap ,maybe it's the iPod but I'm not sure how to check it ,maybe I'll try on the AUDI sitefor compatibility

Should of gone to AUDI at least I could of retuned it I suppose

I've just collected mine as it was already built they added nav , it's around £500 ,not got the order to hand but they loaded it on before collection , it's just an SD card and a few numbers that come in a DVD!style case .

Let me know if you want the exact cost and I'll dig the paper work out

I've got the blue, just received my red lead from Amazon,so I can have album artwork displayed and music videos ,but it says device not supported.

Gutted must be the iPod not compatible ,plays music fine with the blue one

It's was already built,

Had a RR evoque but wanted something a bit cheaper to run so visited the audi centre that I got my previous TT from.

Had a chat and he had this one on the system wasn't planning on one being available and expecting at least 12 weeks wait .collected

Within a week .Great car only thing having a pre built is the lack of options ,it's pretty dull at night ,as I like ambient lighting and gutted it hasn't ..

Just a minor detail I'm saving a fortune PM .and for a 1.4 it's pretty lively and have been offered a test drive on the new RS 3 when its in as they know I'm interested in the S3

Hi

Just ordered an A3 s line 1.4 TFSI ,in Daytona grey .this is my second AUDI 1st was a TT .

Should collect weekend , so googled ,found and joined this owners club looking forward to some tips and advice on the A 3

Cheers
