Hi from Japan. The 8P type A3 lineup in Japan only has an automatic car, so it's very fresh. Manual cars have not been sold at Audi authorized dealers since 2016 after the S1.

I've had the 1.6 8V engine twice, in my 8L and my 8P. I'm young so those were my choices, and they are really reliable engines. Although the sensors in the exhaust will fail alot, and the check engine lights come on more often than it should, it always drives and drives good. It can stretch its legs for 102hp. I have the 2.0T A3 8P now, which is alot more unreliable than the 1.6. If you eant reliable, get the 1.6. 1 thing I did notice is that some of the higher mileage ones is that when you turn on the AC, the idling drops a bit and will wobble a little bit.

@carfanatic99 Жыл бұрын

You are completely right, on mine if I don’t turn on the AC the revs wobble a lot. If I turn it on it stables a bit but you can still feel the car wobble. No clue what it is, mechanics and forums don’t know either so. Check engine sometimes comes on when AC is off but turns off after some rides. Weird but other than that it’s a very reliable and comfy car. :)

This one has the coming/leaving home option, which turns on the lights when unlocking the car. And leaves them on when exiting the car, after locking it, for a while.
