Wow, the are so many Audi here in Croatia. infact hardly any Jap car on the road. OK, BMW taxi too.

 

although traffic is not as heavy, jams are common when there are road works and now the new custom clearing. it can take up to 5-6 hours to clear. yesterday i was caught for 1.5 hours. wont have survived if there are inherent problems.

Yeah. Sometimes it is difficult to discern whether those newly created account with its maiden post complaining about dsg/vw gearbox issue is actually genuine or just work of some juvenile troll.

My post is about either or. You can choose to believe PA is very incompetent and sucked at their customer service.

Please don't mind me. I am always a suspicious person. Especially of those who didn't have any interest to join mcf one year ago to announce or share when they were a proud owner of A3 but then suddenly bother to take the time and effort to create account and post bad news.

With much weight loss from the pre FL A3s together with the new dry clutch gb, 1.0 is pretty powerful on the road, as compared to othe 1.6 makes. On paper 0-100km/h is 9,8s but feels much quicker when u step on the gas. Change to sport mode (via gear shift) and easily 7s (based on experience) at the least.

 

 

Tot there is supposed to be a 1.4 COD (Cylinder on Demand) version. Not much complains about the 1.0 for now except a few irritating defects like radio issue...

Wahaha shift into S mode can shave 2-3s off the century sprint. Thanks for the laugh bro lol.

Not 2-3 secs, but I think 0.5 to 1 sec off the official figure is definitely doable without any special setup.
