I purchased my A3 from new last year, I had previously had a Volkswagen Golf I've always driven at night with no problems. Since I purchased this a3 I have been saying the glare is really bad. The other week my passenger experienced this in the passenger seat, it's so bad in the side mirrors it's blinding. I called Audi asking if someone could come out with me in the car so they can see how bad it is and to try to give me help or advice to try to stop this. To my amazement the first thing the techinician said was it was because I didn't have anti glare mirrors which one I didn't know anything about. I would assume a £23000 car would have them, but I wasn't even told about them as an optional extra as had I known I would of ordered them as I mainly drive night. I was told they cannot even be fitted to my car which is only 18 months old I have to buy a new car ! When I challenged the Audi dealership about this they said we tell our customers that they are not fitted with anti glare as standard, however I think this is a safety feature and customers should be told as if you are short like me the glare is so bad that I struggle to see at night. So at the moment I am looking for possible tinting to see if this helps. Has anyone else had this problem or have a solution for this.

Hi, I am just after some advice due to the fact that the internet doesn't seem to acknowledge the existence of my car. I am currently driving a 2007 S6 Avant and i think that my front bushes are going, I was expecting this at some point due to the V10 lump up front, however I cant seem to find anything on replacement parts for it anywhere without having to go through he main dealer and having to take out a mortgage. could anybody possibly point me in the right direction/advise the best route to go down, ie. can i replace just the bushes or do i have to do the control arms etc. and the best place to look for replacement parts. thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide. Paul

Taking the opportunity to upgrade my 2007 A3 Sportback rear bumper after some idiot drove into it! Looking for the following >> Type: A3 Facelift 09-12 Rear Sportback Bumper Colour: Black (in good used condition which won't require any work or a respray) Diffuser: Twin exhaust S-line mesh style (like the attached picture) The bumpers come up regularly on Ebay but the diffuser is the hard bit to get hold of! If anyone has the diffuser to sell separately I'd also be interested (I've read that the 3dr, 5dr & cabriolet diffusers are the same fitment so will fit a Sportback bumper)

Recently purchased an Audi A6 with 88k miles on the clock. Wanted something relatively practical whilst being a little different. Had been looking to buy a 2.7 or 3.0 tdi A4 but when I saw this, I thought "why not"! I am a big fan of cars and over the years, have had many friends who have (and still do) spend a lot of money getting their cars sorted. My plan is to keep the car pretty standard (excluding the air and alloys) but will be looking to replace the ancient sat nav and remap at some point (funds permitting) just to get a bit more out on the engine. Any body with experience in these areas, would love to hear your thoughts. Tried to upload a picture of the car - hope it works...

Hi all, I've just become the proud owner of a 66 plate Audi A3 1.4 tfsi sport back in nano grey and want to give the engine a bit more of the growl it deserves! I just wondered if you guys could give any advice on what performance air filters / induction kit I could get for her? I rang k&n today and they said they haven't got any air filters / induction kits for the plate,make and model. if anyone knows of one that would fit, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

Hi guys, New to the Forum (and Audi owning). After a few VW Golf's I decided a change was needed, more so because we have a 6 month old son who is growing FAST. I picked up a Dark Blue, B6 Avant yesterday (pic attached) - 80,000 miles, some service history and the all important timing belt has been changed at 71,000 miles. It is the 2003 2.0 FSI model which I know is not the most desirable BUT I'm a practical guy, wanted something NON-turbo so that it's relatively simple. I'm not looking for speed/acceleration, more so economy and lower running costs and th ability to get involved my self. It'll be a WorkHorse more than anything. Exterior is great - no rust/scratches or dents, interior is grubby to say the least - was owned by a middle aged Electrician who must have used it as a work horse - it'll need a deep clean - lots of trim broken (arm rest/glove box/worn buttons etc). I can deal with that in time (Ebay). Asking price was £1,985 but got it for £1,500 on basis interior was messy. I feel it was a fair price. I wanted to know what you think i should look at engine-wise as most people would consider doing when they get an older second hand car for the first time? I'm thinking oil change, plugs, clean air filter and pollen filter? Should i stump up and do the coil packs as well as know that they can be problematic? MAF meter perhaps? Any other suggestions? On start up the car stutters a little and engine 'wobbles' around, but after a few revs/drive it warms up and calms down, idling well. All in all everything seems to work fine still, E/mirrors, E/Windows, Cruise Control etc. Got 41MPG crusing back to London on the M40 last night (albeit at 60-65 mph). Was expecting more like mid-30's, so pleased on the whole. Tracking out marginally, but i'll get that sorted. I'm used to a MK7 Golf company car and the brakes are sharp and responsive - this Audi feels like you have to stand on the brakes to get it to stop - is this because it's 13 years old and the car is heavier or could the pads need changing (tricky to say without seeing, I know)? No brake light on the dash. Sorry if this topic has been raised a trillion times, just getting to grips with navigating around the site. thank you in advance. E

Hi everyone, This is my first post as a new Audi A3 owner so I apologies if this has been posted in the past. I have recently bought an Audi A3 5 Door Sportback (2006) and I have a query regarding tyre pressure. My tyres do not need any adjustment at the moment, but just for my future reference, does anybody know the recommended tyre pressure for 18" 245/40? There is nothing on the inside door stating what they should be. I have a graph on the inside fuel cap but it only gives the recommended pressure for 17" as apposed to my 18" tyres? Also some of the tyres do say XL, i'm not sure if this makes a difference? Is anybody able to help with this? Thank you! 😊

Hi, I was hoping someone could help me. I recently bought a 2011 A4 Technik, and I can't figure out how to play the music from my iPhone 5 through the Multimedia system. I have connected with the car through Bluetooth, I can make and answer calls through the system. I thought I could play music through Bluetooth as well, but I am yet to figure it out. I was even looking for a USB port or headphone socket in the car, but there doesn't seem to be one, well not that I have found anyway. Can anyone offer any advice please? Thanks

I have an Audi A4 - 2007 plate, with a 2l Turbo TFSI petrol engine, 100k miles, and my oil level goes down from the maximum mark on the dipstick down to the minimum mark after about 2,500 miles - then it needs topping up with about 1 litre of oil.Is this normal consumption or the beginning of a problem?James

Having issues with my Audi A3 170 BHP 2008 DPF. The DPF light came on a couple of times over the last few months, each time I took it for a blast on the motorway high revs etc and it went off, However over the weekend it has come back on along with the glowplug & engine management light. The car has also gone into limp mode. Reading up on the forums i understand it now needs a forced regen by hooking the car up to VCDS. Is this correct? Does anyone know any place in the Birmingham/ WestMidlands i can do this without having to fork out silly money? Cheers,

Audi A6 Quattro 2.5 ltr TDI - P Reg (1996)
GoPro2016 posted a topic in Audi Cars for Sale and Wanted
Gutted to be selling my Audi A6 Quattro 2.5 ltd TDI 6 speed. The car has approx 215,000 miles on the clock and the engine was replaced about 70,000 miles ago. This vehicle is a non-runner as the head gasket has gone. As far as can be told there is no engine damage and this would be an easy project for a hobbies / enthusiast. It had a new radiator and water pump in March last year. Chassis is in good condition as is the body work for it's age. Various scuffs (light level scratches) and a couple of tiny dents dotted around. Sold as seen (minus the bike rack). Prior to the head gasket going it was a great car to drive, powerful and well balanced and sadly got my first speeding ticket in so there is considerable sentimental value! Engine cover is available, it just wasn't on the engine when I took the photos. Also please note the bike rack on the back doesn't come with the car :) Vehicle registration is P51 LYA - I've just taken my cherished plate off it hence the lack of plates on the car. If you're interested give me a shout with questions / offers. Many Thanks Andy 07827 434343
