Hi,
I am new around here. Just looking currently but seriously thinking of going for a Q3. Visited a showroom recently and was pretty impressed with the Q3. It fits my needs really well.
One thing I was not too impressed with was the MMI screen on the dashboard. To me it seemed really poor resolution. Perhaps this is as a result of the increased resolution in iPhones and the like now a days.
For this reason I was strongly considering adding the Technology Pack to my wish list as this has a better/higher resolution screen. I have a few questions for someone who has one (or has seen one) as follows:-
1. Is the resolution better for all the features/menus? Or is it just better on the Sat Nav. No point in paying for better resolution if the software does not make the most of it.
2. Is there any way of clearly telling whether a car has the Tech Pack without playing with it? Does the screen look different in any way? I ask this, because there is a good chance that I may have to go the used car route and it is not always clear from the details what packages are included. For example there are many used Q3s out there that say they have Sat Nav when I suspect they really only have Sat Nav potential (via SD Card).
Does anyone know for certain why the Technology Pack goes with the raised floor? I am guessing it is because some element (HDD?) has to go under there, but it would be good to know for certain. I will probably go for a spare wheel and perhaps sub-woofer anyway.
I guess some photos would be really excellent (if anyone is able to go this far).
Many thanks in advance.
