Audi A3 Sedan/Sportsback Owners - Check In

[Oldsubaru]

@Wt_know Nicely put. Thanks bro. Currently car still awaiting transfer. Probably need to wait for that to happen first

If Audi is anything like Merc

the service credits will be linked to the original owner and unless you have his contacts, ID and such you won’t be able to pretend to be him bro and getting caught won’t look good on your CV..

i find this very awkward ... if the owner buy a new car which has 5 years free servicing cap at 100K mileage 

then sell the car after 1st year ... all the servicing gone down the drain?  

1st car owner > sell car to beng dealer > heck care > sell to new owner 

how to trace? if i am 1st owner ... i will not pass my details to the beng dealer too ...

and if beng dealer give my contact details to other people i will pursue under PDPA

anyway, the free servicing is no biggie la ... small money and nothing special

I don't know about Audi, but Merc owners who sell before 3 yrs will try to offload their credits which can be used to buy their merchandise ... 

A 2 yr old car - gotta ask why the owner is selling... TS should ask..

i assume merc "credits" is something like "cashback" .... just like donkey years ago i got a stack $2K “service vouchers" with $100 printed on it

when i sell my car i also offload those vouchers

nowadays conti car is sold "package with" free servicing like Audi/VW ... ads emphasize free servicing + warranty

i assume the servicing tied to the car especially when the new rule of outside servicing is allowed

Bros how much is standard servicing at PA?

[Soundphile]

Maybe for some reason, the second hand car dealer doesn’t want the new owner to go back to agent for servicing?

[Oldsubaru]

Checked with PA. for free servicing, cars registered before Nov 2019-can the free servicing is transferable. Cars registered after Nov 2019, free servicing not transferable. So weird

Normal. 
1. to clock a sale to show to Audi gmbh.

2. Or a false ad to use up ad space by PI or dealers. Car is brand new and not yet registered. 

[SZ_ford]

@Oldsubaru do u mean just normal oil change? it's $180

[Oldsubaru]

@SZ_ford thanks bro. So standard service ( oil flyer, oil change ) at PA only 180?

[SZ_ford]

@Oldsubaru yes for normal oil change.

oh i should say is $180 before gst + $10 taxi voucher + snacks + drinks + aunty chit chat haha

My A3 sedan aircon seems like not as cold as my previous Japanese car. Previous car 25C already cold. Current car at least needs 22.5. Is this normal? Sorry my first conti car so not sure

Conti cars are like that, your rep should have informed you...

Likely due to fan speed.

Use auto mode.
