wallboy Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Hello, Did some testing of my A3 this week using proper timing equipment. 5 runs as follows: 1. 7.77 2. 7.68 3. 7.57 4. 7.62 5. 7.80 Pleasantly surprised by the results actually. Audi quote 8 secs but I always thought it would be quicker. Thats also the great thing about DSG, you get a very even spread of figures. Just thought I'd share the info.

Brabus Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Is it possible to chip the 170 TDi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdiesel Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 How many miles has the car done? Impressive figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallboy Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Only about 700. I have probably done irreperable damage by redlining before properly run-in, but I couldn't wait!! I'm seriously impressed with the car in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vagman Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 I'm hoping to take delivery of a 170 Sportback with DSG next week, so it is good to hear your positive comments. How do you find it performs in traffic and what is it's overtaking ability like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallboy Posted October 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Doh. Sorry, I didn't. Next time I have the opportunity I'll do it. Hopefully it'll have done 3-4000 miles by then. Ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
