not sure. I've done a bit of research on the internet but nothing about the new a3 model.

only older models. 

to me it looks like a clip on trim but don't want to start pulling the thing and beak it 

hi Rich 

always happy to help 

If you you want to get the obdeleven I suggest buying it straight from the supplier

hi Rich 

you can not reset the faults from the car settings 

you will need to go to a garage or get yourself a little bluetooth diagnostic tool from the internet 

you can find very cheap ones which will only find the faults and easily reset them or get the obdeleven one for about £40 and will might be handy for a few changes here and there 

Hi all 

I just noticed on the electronic hand break button the chrome bit is starting to peel off and it reveals the ugly white plastic underneath. 

this I think is due to my wifes nails 😤

does anyone know if this can be taken off and how ?

so I can wrap it or paint it

Bstrgrds

hi Chef 

can you take a picture of your lights please 

you can maybe use obd eleven to unlock it 

my 2014 model doesn't have them but I've managed to do something similar 

see video below 

hi Stuart 

you can look on eBay for boot lid audi badge nd make sure it has the M3 double tape 

some people don't like any chrome trims/badges 

I would've gave you mine when I took it off 😁

hi Otto 

welcome to the forum 

my local dealer suggests me to change it at 60K 

I personally think it can easily do 100K

I suggest obdeleven too

has better reviews then carista 

I found a way in the car menu too

start the car . press menu then car.

go to service & control and service intervals and at the bottom you should find reset oil intervals I think 

Dear Sqrtsal

Apologies for replying so late 

Please see the picture

hi Sqrtsal

Welcome to the forum

I will have a look tomorrow .

The trouble is I put a dvd in too and the eject button doesn't work . 

Also tried all sort of video formats . different quality. sd card/usb stick and nothing.

hi all

was wandering if anyone can help

i own an audi a3 saloon (63 plate) and i can't plat any video from the sd card or the phone.

there are loads of videos on the internet showing the same model playing video clip 

also tried all sort of formats mpg/vmw/avi/mpeg/mp4...etc

nothing seems to work 

i just ordered an obd2 bluetooth so i can unlock the engineering menu(green menu)

has anyone encountered the same problem?

thank you in advance 

Sunny

HI I'm not a specialist but I know that you need the sd card inserted.and i'm sure that's why you get the error.

depending where you bought the car from . if private then the previous owner decided to make some extra xash on selling it i guess.

have a look on eBay maybe you can find one.

or borrow one from someone else.i'll be more than happy to give you mine only to see if it works.

Hi Xalix

i recently bought an a3 saloon 63 plate and sometimes the fan stays on even when it was -5 outside.

Hi Alan

just had a polen filter replacement at the dealership and ive noticted they've empty my glove box to change it.

plus there was some small leeves in there

so it might worth a look in there
