naturecaller 3rd Gear December 11, 2018 Share December 11, 2018 Good price but I am still having difficulties getting used to the slow up-shifting of the gears from 1 to 2 to 3, experiencing some jerks in between when travelling at Low speeds in carparks or jams. Anyone experiencing the same? Is it normal? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gapyear 2nd Gear December 12, 2018 Share December 12, 2018 Good price but I am still having difficulties getting used to the slow up-shifting of the gears from 1 to 2 to 3, experiencing some jerks in between when travelling at Low speeds in carparks or jams. Anyone experiencing the same? Is it normal?1.4 variant? Should have enough power, no need to manually change gears to upslope i supposed?Autoboxes can detect speed but not slopes when it change gears, so for some smaller engines they may need to change gears manually.

SZ_ford 5th Gear December 12, 2018 Share December 12, 2018 Hi Everyone, Just wanna check if anyone here has taken up the S-Line option pack? What does it include? u can go audi.com.sg and play around with the configurator But i can't seem to find S line for a3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreRider 1st Gear December 12, 2018 Share December 12, 2018 Not sure leh.. My friend just bought 3 weeks ago. 113,999 for 1.4 TFSI. Free solar film/front back in car cam + reverse cam. Quite a good steal if you ask me. That's why see the 106,999 now hand a bit itchy haha. Anyone knows? I was told they no longer sell the 1.4 TFSI after Cars@Expo - whatever balance stock is sold and will not be bringing in anymore. Think the 1.4TFSI is around 8-10K more expensive - but with the 1.0TFSI being in a higher CEVS band, both variants share almost the price. That said, instead of letting us choose, they just decided 1.0TFSI is the way to go - probably because of higher margins. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 7K++ extra if you opt for it. There are some useful stuff on that list as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have test drove the 1.4TFSI and believe many will go for it instead of 1.0 with free upgrade. Congrats to those got the 1.4 with free upgrade! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeap, heard that after the cars@expo, stock for 1.4 TFSI ran out & they won't be bringing it in anymore. Now whatever A3s Audi is selling will only be the 1.0 variant :/. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to those got the 1.4 with free upgrade! 1.4TFSI is of course the better choice, but the power and torque delivery is similar - you have to floor hard to experience any noticeable difference. It probably boils down to their margin and marketing for making that decision - smaller engine is cheaper to make and they can tout it as one of the engine of the year 2018.

Zack2222 1st Gear December 22, 2018 Share December 22, 2018 When in efficiency mode, the car will go into coasting mode when gas pedal is not pressed. When it coasting, it is something like free gear which saves fuel. But any views on if this function is good or bad for the engine? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
