Ahbee1995 Neutral Newbie April 10, 2017 Share April 10, 2017 Thats fast. U stuck in jam often and likes to inch forward? Or drive a low speed?Just normal driving from jurong west to amk daily. I actually notice the sound as early as 3 mths of driving. Think something is wrong (manufacturer defect or something) PA service person was telling me something to do with the weather in sg not sure the real reason. Any member kana the same issue? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerobim08 4th Gear April 12, 2017 Author Share April 12, 2017 Sorry ah I not here to spread rumours just wanna share this issue nia. 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.

Audi2016 5th Gear April 12, 2017 Share April 12, 2017 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 2-3 secs, but I think 0.5 to 1 sec off the official figure is definitely doable without any special setup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
