Water Drain Problem
Hi John, I believe water traps are common on other Audi models from.this area. Am I right in thinking the battery is in the same area along the bulkhead? If so you may find a drain plug there. Also if water is to fill up then you may find wet carpets in the front footwells. This definitely applies to the c5 a6. I have seen c5 owners make custom covers for the area not covered by the plastic cover (if that makes sense?). Out of aluminum or similar. Cheers Steve

A5 paint protection film
Hi Ruben, I'm not surprised you're excited! Paint protection can't protect the paint from a stone hitting a car at speed. It'll probably help reduce the damage but it can't stop stonechips etc. Cheers Steve

Safety Recall 80C5.Servicing heater element.
They could have knocked something but I'd be very unlikely to admit it. You should see if they'll do a diagnostic check for free to see what fault codes flag up but good luck and let us know how you get on. Cheers Steve

Engine Shot
If they are insistant on fitting a second hand engine make sure that they have service history to back.up the engine. I'd keep trying for a new engine but it will.be a long shot!

I think it's 2008 onwards if I'm not mistaken, but I agree with Piotr with checking your build sticker which you should find in the spare wheel well. Cheers Steve

audi a3 8vs 2.0 TDI 150 lowering springs??
Hi Ryan, When you say you intend to fit lowering springs are you intending to fit matching shocks? I mean depending on the spec of your a3 you could always fit s line suspension which will.lower the car and firm up the ride without compromising the factory quality. Eibach and h&r get good reviews but can't say I've ever used them. Cheers Steve

Budget Tyres on High-End Cars?? WHY??
Like you Scott I'm.not a fan of budget tyres, people forget that the tyres are a key component to keeping a car on the road and bit just an inconvenience for MOT time etc. I wonder if the poor owner had bought the car not knowing what tyres it had on. You'd be surprised how often people don't check the tyre manufacturer but ask about tread. It's quite common for dealers to put budget tyres on cars and I've known main dealers to do the same! Cheers Steve

New Audi Owner I need advice. A3 2009 S-line
Welcome to the forum Derek, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch ๐ You'll need to see when the cambelt and water pump were last changed as this can be a costly repair. Also if the car you're looking at has xenon headlights, make sure all the bulbs work as the bulbs and headlights can be expensive to replace. Here's a YouTube video which may help: Cheers Steve
