Hi Daytona
Extras include for:
No smoking package
SD Mapping system (for the wife)
![]()
Electric folding mirrors
Daytona Grey paint
S Line suspension (previously owened a A4 2.0 TDI S Line - great car)
Thinking of the emergency tyre system. Is there a space already under the boot mat?
Also, just picked up on the forum about the TPM. what would you recommend?
I think the S Line has adequate options already fitted.
Not many extras I know but have just retired (60). so need to look after the pennies

hi big bobsounds a nice spec , yes there ir room for a spacesaver as it says on forum somewhere it an £80 option on factory order or £200 if you order it from dealer after delivery . personally i would go for the TPM it saved me a new tyre a week after i picked mine up . and I had it on my golf gti and it did the same then so personally its a must for me . SD satnav is good move it also displays speed limits on roads so no excuses as for being 60 im only 12 months behind you and retired so know where your coming frrom money wise
Hi Big Bob, Just picked up my SE 177 TDI Quattro, and realised that I should have gone for the spacesaver wheel. Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing!! Daytona is spot on, £75.00 against £200.00 is a no brainer. Also got the TPM which needs setting up if the dealer hasn't done it for you.
Hi Daytona.
As some one awaiting a Q3 but have an A4 using the same system it needs telling whenever the tyre pressures are altered. As in normal tyre pressure maintenance. As the owner of a fast fit tyre shop it is surprising or maybe not how many owners are unaware that they can or should do this. Because all the TPMS on German cars in general in simple terms just react to the difference in rolling radius of a deflated tyre. Prefer this system my self as the tubeless valve is just a standard one. More awkward from a tyre fitters point of view when the valve has a transmitter block attached to it as in TPMS when using the alternative system.

Morning BigBob. The deeper well is the chassis floor itself. The carpet appears to be glued to the floor. The only way to create underfloor space is to order the spare wheel! AND mind your head when placing items in the boot. Caught my head on the rigid parcel shelf!! Then again it could just be me!! lol
Hi BigBob, Yes! Because the spare wheel at £75.00 could possibly save you the cost of a new tyre, if you suffer a puncture and have to use liquid to reinflate the original tyre, it is possible that the "Gunk" inside the new tyre may make it impossible to repair, thus a new tyre will be needed. And of course, there is room around the spare tyre for those bits you like to keep in the car out of sight.
In hindsight, I would have gone for the spacesaver wheel!

Hi grekab
Ordered from the same dealer as you end of February. Told at time delivery was muted as being early September. Received an email from dealer end of April saying mid July. Surprised you haven't a definite build date after the length of time you have been waiting. Read somewhere that one of the reasons for the high demand is that Audi have to ship Spanish built cars to China to satisfy demand there. That will ease when China has its own production. But that is a while away. Because I gather from Audi Driver magazine that Chinese buy more Audis than even Gemans nowadays.

I think this Chinese demand for Q3s is a bit of a myth. Having spent 2 weeks recently in China I saw no Q3s but lots of A4L A6L Q5 and Q7s. No Q3s in 2 dealer showrooms either.
Having said that, Audis and local style VWs were very common so VW Group is doing something right
